Abstract: This document is a template for manuscript submissions to the POF2019 conference. Its format is based on MS Word styles. For instance, the style of this paragraph is “Abstract” (10pt Times New Roman, justified, 18pt space before paragraph, etc.) PDF files produced with other word processors are also accepted, but they should yield the same or very similar printed results. Use no more than 80 words for the abstract.
Key words: Manuscript format, Document template, MS Word styles, PDF.
1. Introduction
This MS Word file specifies the format of the papers submitted to the POF2019 conference in Yokohama, Japan. Almost all format specifications are based on styles (which include font typeface and size, spacing, alignment, etc.). For instance, the style of this paragraph is “MainText” (10pt Times New Roman, justified, 6pt separated from adjacent paragraphs, etc.)
It is highly recommended to use this MS Word file as a template since it contains the styles for each kind of paragraph (title, authors, abstract, section titles, main text, figures, etc.) Files submitted in PDF format should produce the same or very similar printed results.
Specially important general guidelines are: the paper size (US Standard, 8.5x11 inches), the margins (1 inch all around, without any page headers or footers), the Times New Roman font throughout (or at least a font of the Times family) with 10pt for the main text, the figure captions with their numbering, etc.
For any questions about manuscript format, please contact Technical Program Committee of POF2019 program_cmtee@
2. Section
Section titles will be numbered 1., 2., 3., etc. Their style will be “Title 1” (11pt bold Times, separated 18pt from the previous paragraph, etc.) The style does not include the automatic numbering of sections and sub-sections for simplicity and for there being a very limited number of them.
2.1. Sub-section
If there is any sub-section, it may be titled using style “Title 2” (10pt Times, bold, italics, 12pt space before) and numbering 1.1., 1.2....; 2.1., 2.2...., etc.
2.2. Equations
For equations, use the same “MainText” style, but center and number them to the right by means of tabulations:
[pic] (1)
Equations will be numbered and referenced as (1), (2), etc. However, it will not be necessary to number equations which are referred to only in their vicinity. Equations’ font type and size should be the same as for the rest of the manuscript, i.e. 10pt Times (plus the necessary symbols).
2.3. Figures and tables
Figures and tables will be centered. Their numbering will be Fig. 1, Fig. 2...; Table 1, Table 2... They will have a caption with a brief explanation in style “FigureCaption1Line” (9pt, italics, centered…), or “FigureCaption2+Lines” (9pt, italics, justified…) if the caption is more than one line long. The figures themselves will be in style “Figure”:
[pic]
Fig. 1: The style for the figure is “Figure”, while the style for this footer is “FigureCaption2+Lines” because it is longer than 1 line (otherwise it would be “FigureCaption1Line”).
The figure insets and labels should be preferably in a font similar to that of the main text (10pt Times), although the only essential requirement is that they are clearly readable when printing on an A4 paper sheet.
2.4. Format of bibliographical references
Bibliographical references and internet links will be numbered according to their order of appearance in the main text. They will be placed at the end of the document with style “Reference” (0.7-cm-French indented, 3pt space before) and numbered [1], [2], [3], etc. The preferred format to reference journal papers, books, conference communications and internet links can be seen at the end of this document.
3. FAQ
• How can I divide a title or text into two lines at any desired point without altering the format or line spacing?
- Use a manual line feed (Shift-Enter in MS Word). Do it after a tabulation if necessary.
• I find it difficult to follow so many instructions…
- It is easy if you just apply each paragraph its corresponding style in Word. For other word processors, just make sure the printed aspect is similar (page size, margins, font type and size, spacing…) and submit the generated PDF file.
• How many pages must the papers have?
- Two pages.
4. Conclusions
Please follow the rules of format contained in this MS Word document. The easiest way to do it is to use this file as a template and apply each type of paragraph its corresponding style. Otherwise, PDF files generated with other word processors should yield the same or very similar printed results. The more homogeneous the aspect of all the different papers is, the better the conference proceedings will look.
