We will put a hotlink on the abstract to direct readers to this information.
* Scanned papers generate very large PDF files. These large files may present difficulties
for users overseas or with dial-up connections. For this reason, we are trying to avoid
scanning whenever possible. Providing a diskette with your paper will allow us to convert your
paper to PDF without scanning. If you wish to create your own PDF file, please read these suggestions
for producing documents that will display and print correctly on all computers.
After your paper has been converted to PDF, you will receive an e-mail from
Laura Bethard with a link to an electronic copy of your paper.
She will ask you to review the PDF version to make sure that your paper (especially your equations)
were not altered in the conversion. Thank you for taking the time to do this. If you do not respond
to his e-mail, your paper will be posted.
