Author Guidelines

AUTHOR GUIDELINES FOR CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS

Preparing Your Proceedings Paper
ICHPK Series uses author-supplied PDFs for all online and print publication. Authors must prepare their papers using Microsoft Word or LaTeX, according to the guidelines and templates, and then convert these files to PDF.

 

It is important to ensure that when you submit your paper, it is in its final form ready for publication, and has been thoroughly proofread. IOP do not copy edit or reformat papers and will not send out author proofs prior to publication. Post-publication changes are not permitted, so please ensure that your paper has been checked for errors.

 

By submitting a paper an author and all co-authors are assumed to agree with the terms of the IHCPK Proceedings Licence.

 

Do not submit your papers directly to ICHPK Publishing; please contact your conference organizer for submission instructions.

 

As a summary, please ensure the following:

  • Paper size is European A4.
  • Margins are 4cm (top), 2.5cm (left and right) and 2.7cm (bottom).
  • The paper includes the author name and affiliation (full address including country).
  • There are no page numbers, or headers and footers, within the paper.
  • The PDF is free of formatting errors (e.g. corrupt equations, missing or low-resolution figures), since conversion from Word to PDF can introduce formatting errors.
