Submission Preparation Checklist

  1. The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another conference or symposium for consideration.

  2. None of the fonts used in my paper are type 3. (I understand that if my paper contains type 3 fonts it will not be published)

    If you don't know the difference, please see Rick Groff's article, "Converting LaTeX to PDF."

  3. All fonts in my paper are named with actual font names, not subsetted temporary font names (subsetted font names have tildes or a long string of numbers after them, or names like TT877C195EtCID.)

  4. The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the AAAI Press Formatting Instructions for Authors (that is, it is 2 columns, formatted in Times or Times Roman or Times New Roman (or Nimbus Roman), has the correct margins, is in the proper type size, the paper size for final submission is US Letter, not A4, and the document margins are exactly .75 inches (top, left, and right) and 1.25 inches (bottom).

  5. The title follows US capitalization rules (e.g. "Title of Your Paper," not "Title of your paper").

  6. If my paper was formatted using LaTeX, I have used an unaltered copy of the 2010 version of aaai.sty, and aaai.bst and my LaTeX source file does not use the hyperref or geometry package.

    If my paper was formatted in Word, I have used an unaltered copy of the 2010 version of the aaai.doc file.

  7. I have checked every page of the final distilled PDF of my paper and certify that it contains the proper margins, reasonably conforms to the formatting guidelines, and is not being submitted past the deadline. I understand that if this is not the case, I may be required to reformat the paper (or pay a fee to have it corrected or included) or have it excluded from the proceedings.

  8. I have signed and mailed the original of the AAAI copyright form (included in the author kit) to AAAI (445 Burgess Drive, Suite 100 Menlo Park, CA 94025). I understand that my paper will not be published if I do not submit this signed form in a timely manner.

  9. I understand that www.aaai.org/ocs/ is a temporary submission site for the private use of registered authors of the conference, and I will not publicize this site or the private url of my paper.
