The hard part is figuring out the values (font size, spaces after
sections, etc) from the LaTeX code. It is difficult to look at
http://mirror.hmc.edu/ctan/macros/latex/contrib/IEEEtran/IEEEtran.cls and
figure out what is the title size for a 10pt document, or how much space
should come between the author block and the start of the two column text,
etc.
Reverse engineering these values is no fun. That is why I am saying that
an *exact and complete* spec is needed.
