Paper Preparation
1. Papers must be prepared in English, with a two-column format, and two pages of A4 size in length, including all texts,
references, figures and photographs. Any submitted papers that exceed two pages will be immediately rejected.
The first page must include the title of the paper, author(s), affiliation(s), address, and article text. Detailed information
on the paper format is available at Microsoft Word format. The paper should consist of original and previously unpublished
work, including specific results.
2. To avoid unexpected difficulties in the reviewing process, two-byte characters such as Japanese, Chinese, Korean etc.
fonts cannot be used for both figures and texts.
3. When creating your PDF file, please remember to maintain a quality if graphics and images need to be compressed.
• Your artwork must be included in the article. If digital photographs are used, a resolution of 600 dpi or less should be
followed. Please provide the best quality of photographs and illustrations possible.
• Color images can be included in your camera-ready paper because the accepted paper will be distributed
as PDF-files in CD-ROM.
4. The file must be smaller than 3 MByte.
Creating the PDF File
1. Please submit your camera-ready paper in PDF format; do not encode or compress the file.
2. For Distiller Users:
a. Select "Print Optimize" or "Print" in the job option. This selection is usually enough to keep the file size smaller
than 3MB while maintaining graphics and images quality good enough for printing.
b. If the file size exceeds 3MB, change the dpi or compression level setting under the Compression tab of Job Options
to reduce the file size.
3. For Everyone:
The easiest way to create a PDF document from your Word file with all fonts properly embedded and subset as required
is to direct Word to export an ISO 19005-1 compliant (PDF/A) file. Follow these steps (native in MS Word 2010 and above,
or as an add-in in MS Word 2007):
• Select“Save As”→“PDF or XPS” in Word.
• Select “Options,” and ensure that “ISO 19005-1 compliant (PDF/A)” is checked.
4. PDF Conversion or Check:
All submissions should be electronic and in IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF format (*.pdf). Embedded Type 1 or True Type fonts
are required in the submitted PDF file as subset fonts. Type 3 fonts (bitmaps) will not be accepted.
