The first author appears in a bottom line and to the left #7159
Description
Description
The automatic rendering of an authors list that looks like:
Person A, Person B & Person C
Affiliation (shared for all)
is rendered in the html preview as 2 persons, with Person A on the left without affiliation, and Person B& Person C being rendered to the right as one person with a single affiliation just for "him".
This causes the first author to look like it's on the bottom left of the entire area, and everything looks weird

Hello @ronensc, we have received your feedback and are reviewing it.
Your reports on HTML issues help our developers prioritize improvements to our HTML conversion process, helping make arXiv more accessible. Thank you!
Please note that:
• We receive a high volume of reports – while we track, review, and assess each issue reported, we cannot respond to reporters individually.
• This GitHub repository ONLY tracks reports that are about the experimental HTML format – if you report an issue that is not relevant to HTML rendering, it will not be noted or tracked.
• For issues that are not relevant to HTML rendering (e.g. issues that also appear in the PDF), please contact the author (for issues like typos or dead links) or submit a ticket to the arXiv user support portal (http://arxiv.org/support/general_help).
