Any documents that have not reached me by then should be brought to the meeting, and an electronic version either sent to me or brought on a diskette. For the record, I append my earlier email regarding submission procedure. Miles ------------------ Earlier email message re: WG5 server procedures ------------ I have been reorganising the ftp server slightly, and all documents from N1135 now exist in PostScript, Acrobat and (where possible) ASCII forms. All files over 8K in size are gzipped - this means all PostScript files, most Acrobat ones, and the odd text one. Moreover, I have changed the method of adding files to the server. With immediate effect, all documents for distribution electronically should follow the following procedure. 1. Get a number from me via email 2. Format the document so that it will fit on both A4 and US paper. The easiest way to do this is to set the margins as follows: A4: Top 1 inch or 2.54 cm Bottom 1.3 inches 3.3 cm Left 1 inch 2.54 cm Right 1 inch 2.54 cm US: Top 0.8 inches 2.03 cm Bottom 0.8 inches 2.03 cm Left 1.1 inches 2.79 cm Right 1.1 inches 2.79 cm If these margins are used for the appropriate size of paper then the printed area will be 9.4 x 6.3 inches, or 23.9 x 15.9 cm, regardless of the original paper size. 3. Save the document in PostScript form. Do not include fonts unless you are using fonts other than the standard ones available on PostScript printers. 4. Send the PostScript file (oreferably compressed using gzip) to my ftp server at com1.etrc.ox.ac.uk/New_WG5_Papers (Note that the name is not case sensitive). In fact you will be logged in to the New_WG5_Papers folder (directory for non-Macintosh types) within a folder called pub, but you should not specify pub as anonymous ftp users are automatically connected to that folder as the highest point they can reach in the directory tree. Note that you can put new files,and get existing ones, but you cannot delete or change anything. If you make a mistake you will need to send two versions and let me know which one to use. 5. If possible, please also send a text (ASCII) version of the document as well. 6. Send me an email message to say that you have put the document(s) on my file server. I will then create an Acrobat version from the PostScript file, and will put all three (two if no text version is supplied) onto the official server operated by NAG. Any queries to me, please.
