In order to help our authors in preparation for publication in Proceedings of SPIE of your papers submitted to QI-2002 we provide you with the following guidelines.
The manuscripts of the papers should be prepared according to SPIE Guidelines:
Print your manuscript single-sided on high-quality white paper, using a laser printer of at least 600 dots per inch (dpi), or a letter-quality printer. In pencil, write the primary author's last name, paper number (e.g., 4506-17), and manuscript page number over the total number of pages (e.g., 1/8) on the upper left corner of the back of each page of the manuscript.
Manuscripts should be 8 to 12 single-sided pages (15 pages for Invited Papers). There is a charge of $30 for each additional manuscript page beyond 12 pages. All text—including footnotes and author information—and illustrations must appear within a 6.75x8.75 in. (17x22 cm) area. If you use a U.S.-standard (8.5x11 in./21.5x27.8 cm) page, set margins to .88 in. (2.2 cm) left and right, and 1.2 in. (3.1 cm) top and bottom. If you use an A4 page, set margins to 2.0 cm left and right, 3.1 cm top, and 4.7 cm bottom. Use Times Roman or equivalent font for all text. Use boldface or italic for emphasis only. Single-space all text, allowing extra space between paragraphs. The proper fonts (all Times Roman) for various elements are:
Article title
16 pt bold
Author names, affiliations
12 pt
SECTION HEADING
11 pt bold caps
Subsection heading
10 pt bold
Body text
