8    text on high-quality, 8.5 x 11-inch white printer paper (A4 size is
9    also acceptable).
10    
11    All printed material, including text, illustrations, and charts, must
12    be kept within a print area 6-7/8 inches (approx. 17.5 cm) wide by 8-7/8
13    inches (approx. 22.5 cm) high.
14    
15    (3) PAGE AND COLUMN LAYOUT. Start the first page in a one-column
16    format. Center your title about 3 lines down from the normal top of the
17    print area. Follow the title with two blank lines. The author name(s)
18    and affiliation(s) are next, centered beneath the title and followed by
19    two blank lines.
20    
21    Your Abstract and the remainder of the paper are to be in a two-column
22    format (except for figures or tables that may span both columns if
23    necessary). If the last page is not filled, please divide the data into
24    two equal columns.
25    
26    Columns in the two-column format are to be 3-1/4 inches wide (approx. 8.5
27    cm), with a 3/8-inch (approx. 1.0 cm) space between columns, for a total
28    print area width of 6-7/8 inches (approx. 17.5 cm). The length of the
29    print area of any page must not exceed 8-7/8 inches (approx. 22.5 cm).
30    
31    (4) TYPE STYLE AND SIZE OF TEXT. Normal text is to be single spaced in
32    10-point Times or Times Roman(or similar font), with 12-point interline
33    spacing, in the two-column format. The first line of each paragraph is
34    to be indented approximately 1/4 inch (approx. 0.7 cm), and the entire
35    text is to be justified -- that is, flush left and flush right. Please
36    do not place additional line spacing between  aragraphs. Figure and
37    table captions should be Helvetica 10-point boldface; callouts should
38    be Helvetica 9-point nonboldface.
39    
40    (5) ABSTRACTS. The Abstract should be approximately 150 words or fewer,
41    italicized, in 10-point Times (or Times Roman.) Please leave two spaces
42    between the Abstract and the heading of your first section.
43    
44    (6) TITLE AND HEADINGS. The main title should be in Times (or Times Roman)
45    14-point boldface centered over both columns. In the main title, please
46    initially capitalize nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs;
47    do not capitalize articles, coordinate conjunctions, and prepositions
48    (unless the title begins with such a word). Initially capitalize only
49    the first word in first-, second-, and third-order headings. Leave two

65    discourage it), then it is to be in Times 10-point boldface, preceded
66    by one blank line, and followed by a period and text on same line.
