Preparing IEEE Xplore-Compatible
PDF files using PDFeXpress
IEEE PDF eXpress website:
https://216.228.1.34/pdfexpress/log.asp
Conference ID:
aim05
IEEE
PDF eXpress converts the following file types to PDF:
Rich
Text Format
Freelance
(La)TeX
(DVI and all support files required)*
PageMaker
FrameMaker
QuarkXpress*
Word
Pro
Microsoft Word
WordPerfect
*For
documents created in formats that do not embed source files, include all support
files with the final manuscript in a folder. Put this folder in a compressed
archive for submission. If it is possible to embed images in the source
document, you should do so to avoid potential issues, such as missing graphics.
IMPORTANT:
A DVI (DeVice Independent file) is required for LaTeX conversions, in addition
to all associated image files. Make sure that your LaTeX system can output a DVI,
otherwise it cannot be converted. Be sure also to check that your images are
properly referenced, and that DVI can handle the image file types used (DVI does
not handle some newer image types, such as *.png).
