General format notes:

• Make sure to format for 8.5" x 11" paper (U.S. standard)
• Use a 1-inch margin on all four edges of your paper
• DO NOT number your pages, use running heads, or footnotes! (Endnotes are OK, see template.)
• Use a single column, and "full justified" text
• Use 10-point Times or similar serif font for general body text

3) Convert your paper, etc., into PDF format. If you are stumped about how to create a PDF file, please contact us at "[email protected]" for assistance.

Please also send us your paper, etc., in a word processor format, in case there are very minor changes that we can make on our own. We prefer Microsoft Word 98 for Macintosh format, but can also work with Word 97 or Word 2000. If you are not using Word, please convert your file to a "rich text format" (RTF) document before sending it. If in doubt, just convert to RTF.

4) Give your files names based on your last name, with the extension .pdf (e.g., Fishman.pdf, Fishman.rtf, Fishman.word98). If you have more than one submission, use numbers (e.g., Fishman1.pdf, Fishman2.pdf, etc.)

5) Email your PDF and word processor file(s) to "[email protected]".
