This example document or template has a set of uniform definitions that will allow us to produce similar looking output using Microsoft Word. We hope you will find it useful.
 

2. How to submit your document

Please send your contribution (including all relevant files) to conf99@brown.nord.nw.ru. The deadline for receipt is
October 1, 1999. Before we proceed, a few important comments:

• You can submit the paper by sending us an e-mail with the document as an attachment.

• The final paper version will be in black and white. So please ensure that your contribution prints well in black and white. In particular, b/w output of colour figures may make the distinction between different symbols or lines difficult, if not impossible would look like.

• We have reserved the following number of pages:

2.1 Page and font size

The final camera-ready copy will be printed on A4 paper. The lay-out of the page has therefore been optimized for this format.
Please use the font "Time new Roman" with size 12.

2.2 Page layout.

As you can see, we have opted for a single column layout. The final book will measure 17.0 by 24.0 cm and will be reduced from A4 (scale approximately 85%). Page numbers will be inserted by us at a later stage, so you needn't worry about them. Don't refer to a particular page numbers in your document. Please ensure that your contribution is suitably structured. Place figures close to the point in the text where they are first mentioned. To ensure no isolated headings appear at the bottom of a page, switch on Widow Control (in Word: Format - Paragraph - Line and Page breaks). If needed, manually insert page breaks as required.

3 Elements of your document

3.1 Figures and Tables; Numbering

Figures should be of sufficient resolution, to be able to be printed (see information about reduction above). Especially photographs can often be a problem, if along the way they have been stored in a format that offers up resolution in favour colour (e.g. JPEG). Please try and ensure a resolution of 300 dots per inch (d.p.i.), for good quality reproduction of photographs.
 
 

Graphs and line drawings (preferably in a vector format such as Windows MetaFile (WMF), or Windows Enhanced MetaFile (EMF) or Encapsulated Postscript (EPS)) can be included in any format that Word accepts.
 
 

Tables should be formatted with a surrounding unbroken line (as shown above) and given a number and a sensible caption. Both tables and figures should be numbered sequentially (a separate sequence for both!). Reference in the text to a figure should be as Fig. 1; for a table as: Table 2.
 
 

Please note that we will not be able to scan in tables and figures or include them in hardcopy form. In order to be included, figures and tables must be placed in your document.

3.2 Equations

Equations numbers must be right adjusted and run consecutively thoughout your document. The format for equation numbering is as given below. The equation itself should be more or less centred in the column:
 
 

Refer to equations in the following form: Equation (1). If the equation extends over more than one line, the number should be on the last line.
 
 

Please use the following convention for formatting of symbols both in equations, and in the text:

• symbols should be typeset in the same font as the body of the text.
• use italics for symbols, except in the following cases:

• vectors should be in bold face
• standard functions remain in the normal (Roman) font: eg. ln(z) or exp(-ix)

• Superscripts and subscripts must be 2 points smaller than the main text.

A footnotes must appear at the bottom of the page on which it they are introduced. To avoid confusion with references, lowercase letters are used for footnotes.

3.4 References

References are numbered in the order in which they are cited[1]. Mutiple consecutive references may be abbreviated with
dash[2-7].

3.5 Section, Subsection and Subsubsection Headings

 Please don'?t count on proper numbering to be done automatically. All Headers must be separated by a tab from their number. The References and Acknowledgements section are not numbered.
