Manuscript Preparation for Interface '97
Manuscript Preparation Instructions for Authors
The proceedings volume is produced from camera-ready copy that the
authors prepare according to the guidelines given below.
-
Contributed papers should not exceed six pages and invited papers
should not exceed ten pages. These pages include everything---
bibliography, tables, graphics, title, etc.
-
Originals must be made by laser printer (not copies) on standard
paper (8 1/2 x 11). Refer to item 5 below for a description of the
typing area.
-
Number the pages in LIGHT BLUE on the back of each page. Do not
number the pages on the front.
-
Center your title on the middle six inches of the first page, and
list the authors and addresses under the title. If you cite support,
do so in a footnote. Keywords and phrases are not required.
-
There will be two columns on each page. The side margins are 3/4
inch to the left of the first column, 1/4 inch between columns, and 3/4
inch to the right of the second column. The typing area for each
column is 3 and 3/8 inches wide. Text should begin 1 and 1/4 inches
from the top of the page, and leave one inch at the bottom of the
page. If possible, use right justification for each column.
-
To ensure uniformity of appearance, use 10 point type, preferably
computer modern or Times Roman.
-
The manuscript should be single spaced. If you are familiar with
TeX, this means a baseline skip of 12 points.
-
The abstract should begin the first column.
-
The publisher will number the pages and insert a running head
outside the typing area. On a separate sheet of paper, please indicate
your choice of running head.
-
Other formatting is left to the discretion of the author(s).
