have you written to them and said something like:

   "is it OK to also send in a .sty file to conform to your bibliography
   format?  and if i can't, please tell me how to conform to your format"

before giving up on that, you should definitely ask...

it's possible, but not that i know of.  my own pete_macros.sty is just a
bunch of macros i've written and placed in $TEXINPUTS so \usepackage can
find it.

are you sure you pasted it after \documentclass but before
\begin{document}?
