World Scientific has produced a style/template document for MSWord, which will allow authors to prepare manuscripts that can be brought directly into the World Scientific production process for CRC titles. This will enable more accurate production of page proofs, reducing your need during proofreading to locate typographic mistakes.

Installing the style file

The World Scientific Word templates and sample files are in a zip format. Choose 120-ijhses_doc.zip (WORD) or 120-ijhses_2e.zip LATEX . Download and unzip this. Once unzipped successfully, you will find the following files:

 

readme.doc         :        preliminary guide

ws-ijhses.dot      :        style/template file

ws-ijhses.pdf      :        sample typeset pages using ws-ijhses.dot template

Using the style file

Please copy the “ws-ijhses.dot” onto your default templates directory (this will normally be something like C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates).

 

·      To create a new document, choose New from the File menu, then select the ws-ijhses template from the Template list box before clicking OK.

·      To attach the template to an existing document, first open the document, and then select the ws-ijhses Template from the Tools -> Templates and Add-ins menu. Press the “Attach Button” in the Templates and Add-ins dialogue and double click the appropriate template/style file from the file selector. Then ensure that the “Automatically Update Document Styles” check box is crossed before clicking on OK in the Templates and Add-ins dialogue. It is also necessary to run the macro “WS IJHSES” to have a required page layout when you attach the template to an existing document.

 

Whichever method you have used, the World Scientific styles will then be available in the Styles list box on the tool bar, and in the Style dialogue box on the “Format” menu.

Applying World Scientific styles to your documents

To use a style, first select the text to which you would like to attach the style, then choose the style name from the styles list box on the tool bar or by using wsijhses ToolBar/Menu.

Instructions

Illustrations and images

Please prepare all line drawings, halftones (gray scale) and colour illustrations in high resolution. The requirements are:

      (a)     600 dpi for line drawings (black and white)

      (b)    300 dpi for halftones (gray scale). Do not convert from colour images as they reproduce very poorly.

      (c)     300 dpi for colour images. Must be in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) for colour separation. RGB (Red, Green and Blue) is unacceptable for colour separation work. Colour images to be printed in colour are allowed only as agreed in the contract.

      (d)    Ensure all labels/annotations are sharp and clear for reproduction. Easy-to-read typeface/font like Arial, Helvetica or Times Roman are recommended for the labels.

      (e)     To provide softcopy of the illustrations in either eps, ps, tif, jpg, gif or bmp format, preferable on a PC platform. All illustrations should be embedded in the text. At the same time provide the illustrations as individual files. Use the correct file names for each illustration, for example, John_fig1.eps, John_fig2.eps, or John_fig1.tif, John_fig2.tif.

      (f)     If soft copies are not available, authors are requested to submit good original glossy prints for clear reproduction. Figure number must be clearly labeled on the back and preferably indicate which side of the figure is the top by using an arrow pointing upwards.

Camera-ready copy (crc) manuscripts

For authors who are submitting their manuscripts in CRC form, (whether in pdf files or PostScript files) please ensure all postscript fonts, i.e. Type 1 fonts are embedded. Bitmap fonts, eg. Type 3 fonts are not readable on the screen and the search functions will not be made available.

Bring your manuscript hardcopy and a filled COPYRIGHT FORM (downloads - .doc .pdf) to the Conference registration Desk. Your paper will be reviewed and, if accepted, published both in IJHSES and in a hard cover book in the Series on Special Topics in Electronics and Systems. Only manuscripts that are presented at the meeting will be published. Online submission instructions will be posted soon.

Miscellaneous

(a)     Please ensure that quotation marks are paired correctly, e.g. “good quotes” rather than ”bad quotes”.

(b)     Italicized words should not be done in Tex’s mathmode when using TeX and Latex2e. This will result in unusual character spacing. Use the proper control sequence of “\it”.

(c)     Use a hyphen (-) for compound words (e.g. ‘two-dimensional’), an en-dash (–) to link numbers, nouns or names (e.g. 220–240 Volts, electron–positron collisions, Einstein–Rosen–Podolsky paradox), and an em-dash (—) to link sentences or clauses — this is what we would regard as a ‘normal’ dash.

      (d)    Note this set of common abbreviations:

               Equation(s)       —      Eq./Eqs.       

               Figure(s)           —      Fig./Figs.     

               Reference(s)      —      Ref./Refs.     

               Section(s)          —      Sec./Secs.     

 

Please spell in full if any of the above is the first word of the sentence.

 

      (e)     Latin words are italized, e.g.

               et al., a priori, in situ, ibid. etc.
