STEP 3: Important Information about Preparing your Paper The
IEEE is dedicated to the worldwide distribution of conference papers to
engineering professionals. The IEEE digital libraries are the primary
delivery method, especially the IEEE Xplore digital library. This
requires that all papers submitted for publication must meet a minimum
standard for both print and electronic publishing.
We now offer conferences free access to PDF eXpress™,
the IEEE's online file conversion/PDF validation tool, to assist authors
in preparing suitable electronic files of their final papers. PDF
eXpress™ helps authors convert their papers into IEEE Xplore-compatible
PDF files (conversion function) or to check their own PDF files for IEEE
Xplore compatibility (PDF validation function).
PDF eXpress™ is not a file submission system and does
not capture files. An author's file simply passes through the system
returning a PDF file or an error report.
After using PDF eXpress™, you will still need to
submit the IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF file of your final paper later in
this publication submission process (see STEP 8).
Your final papers MUST be
formatted to IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscript Formatting
Guidelines (follow the link to formatting instructions). It is highly
recommended that you proofread and check the layout of your paper BEFORE
submitting it to PDF eXpress™.
STEP 5: PDF eXpress Online File Conversion/PDF Validation Tool 5.1) If you would like to create your own
PDF file, please change the setting on your PDF distiller to insure

IMPORTANT: Authors must check their
final PDF files before submission to verify that all fonts have been
properly embedded and subset. Some font manufacturers now flag their
fonts to not embed. These fonts must be avoided.

STEP 7: Submitting a Copyright Release Form Please fill out and submit the following form to
access the IEEE Electronic Copyright Form (eCF) system. The eCF system
allows you to complete and sign the copyright release form. You must
complete the IEEE copyright release form using the eCF system in order
to submit your paper. This copyright release form MUST be COMPLETED when you are submitting your paper.
A FULL/COMPLETE author list is needed.
Please note: You are stating that the material
