Description

When writing an document with a custom class, the xenops preview document is created with the article class. Consequently, the custom commands of the class aren't recognized and the preview document doesn't compile (even though the original one does). Here are the two files:

`
\documentclass[12pt]{fphw}

% Template-specific packages
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % Required for inputting international characters
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % Output font encoding for international characters
\usepackage{mathpazo} % Use the Palatino font
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx} % Required for including images

\usepackage{booktabs} % Required for better horizontal rules in tables

\usepackage{listings} % Required for insertion of code
\usepackage{physics}
\usepackage{enumerate} % To modify the enumerate environment

%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\title{Test \#1} % Assignment title

\author{Sasa Salmen} % Student name

\date{april 13th, 2022} % Due date

\institute{University of São Paulo \\ Molecular Sciences Course} % Institute or school name

\class{Mathematics IV} % Course or class name

\professor{Sonia Garcia} % Professor or teacher in charge of the assignment

%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\begin{document}

\maketitle % Output the assignment title, created automatically using the information in the custom commands above

\end{align}

And the preview file:

Research direction

Start by tracing how Xenops generates the preview document from the provided LaTeX source, comparing its \documentclass line with the generated preview document. Reproduce the fphw example and verify that the preview retains the custom class and compiles without the undefined \institute, \class, and \professor errors.
