Authors are expected to send in their camera ready copy
by email to nmr-04@pims.math.ca.
The due date for camera ready copies in PDF format is April 30, 2004.
Brief Explanations
Suppress AAAI copyright
Simply include \nocopyright somewhere before \maketitle in tex source.
Generate screen friendly pdf
There are two options.
- Use pdflatex to generate pdf directly from tex source. This is
an easy option, but it can sometimes cause problems with embedded
figures.
- Use ps2pdf to generate pdf from ps. In this case, you should use
the following command
dvips -Ppdf -G0 -o papername.ps papername.dvi
to generate the original ps. This prevents type 3 fonts from being
used. (Type 3 fonts will look blurry on screen in your pdf)
You can check that your pdf contains no type 3 fonts by using pdffonts
(which is included in the xpdf package), or by checking File->Document_Properties->Fonts
in Acrobat reader.
Use US letter paper size
We would appreciate camera ready submissions formatted for US letter
sized paper. If your default document is formatted for A4 paper, there
are two steps. First of all, you should include the [letterpaper] option
in your tex source as follows:
\documentclass[letterpaper]{article}
You also need to change your settings for dvips. You should try passing
the -tletter option to dvips. However, you may need to change the dvips
config file. Similarly, if you are using pdflatex, you may need to change
the pdftex config file. In either case, the page width should be set
to 8.5in and the page height should be set to 11.0in.
