IEEE is very strict about the
requirements for converting application files to full-text
PDF for inclusion in IEEE Xplore®. If you are submitting
your own PDF for compatibility check, please follow the
instructions in
"IEEE
PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore"
that describes the essential steps in distilling PDFs that
meet the IEEE requirements. The most important issue that
every author shall pay attention to is to make sure that all
the fonts used in your papers are EMBEDDED and SUBSETTED.
Use the
job options file to set
Adobe Distiller to the correct requirements.
