General Formatting

Make sure your paper:

• is based on the most recent version of the formatting template/style (see details below),
• does not change any style or formatting settings of the template,
• does not exceed the page limit specified in the acceptance-notification e-mail,
• is in PDF format,
• has all fonts embedded in the PDF file,
• uses only scalable font types (like Type 1, TrueType) --- bit-mapped font types (like Type 3) are not acceptable,
• does not have page numbers, headers, or footers,
• is in letter page size,
• provides the affiliation (institution and country) in the author information on the first page,
• defines all authors individually (not as a list),
• has the title and all headings properly capitalized,
• does not use footnotes and references in the abstract,
• provides a DOI for each item in the References section (if possible),
• has all diagrams embedded in vector graphics
  (if not possible, use a high-resolution bitmap format of at least 300 dpi; do not use JPG, but a lossless format like PNG or GIF; JPG is ok for photos),
• has all text in figures and tables large enough and readable when printed,
• has a caption for every figure or table,
• has all units consistently separated from their values with a half space (e.g., '\SI{33}{GB}'),
• has balanced columns on the last page, if the page is not filled,
• uses the microtype package using \usepackage{microtype} for improved typesetting,
• has no orphans and widows,
• has reduced the use of bold face and bright colors in the text as much as possible, underlining is not used at all in the text,
• has all third-party material appropriately attributed (mention author, copyright holder, and origin).
