Final Submission Requirements

Requirements for electronic files

Final works are to be submitted electronically, with file size limited to 2 MB.

IEEE is very strict about the requirements for converting application files or PostScript files to full-text PDF for inclusion in IEEE Xplore^®.  Please follow the detailed instructions in "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore^®" (click here), which describes the essential steps in distilling PDFs that meet IEEE requirements.

The most important issue to is to make sure that all fonts used in the paper are EMBEDDED and SUBSETTED, especially for papers from Asia and Europe. The "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore^®" details the process to ensure that all fonts used are embedded and subsetted. Failure to embed and subset fonts is the biggest obstacle to PDF compliance with IEEE Xplore^®. Papers failing to meet IEEE Xplore^® PDF requirements may be rejected.

IEEE PDF eXpress (click here, and use the Conference ID: iecon08x) is an IEEE-sponsored online tool, freely available to assist authors in complying with the latest IEEE requirements for PDF files. Note: IEEE PDF eXpress is NOT connected to either the ICELIE-2008 or IECON-2008 or paper submission system. After authors have verified their papers with IEEE PDF eXpress, authors must return to the ICELIE-2008 or IECON-2008 website to submit their final file!

Formatting rules

Papers are limited to six (6) A4 sized sheets, and must conform to IEEE double column format. Up to two additional sheets may be included, at additional charge (see REGISTRATION page). Submissions exceeding 8 pages will be rejected.

Do NOT insert any headers, footers, or page numbers.

Templates for papers are available in .DOC (click here), PDF (click here), and LaTeX (click here) formats.

Paper Submission

NOTE: The IES paper submission system is not compatible with versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer that use non-Western character sets (especially in Asia). One effective solution is to use the Mozilla Firefox browser, available at no cost (click here).

ICELIE authors: When submitting a manuscript through the online system, please select the Industrial Electronics technical field to which your E-learning application most closely relates, e.g. power electronics, control systems, etc.
