In order to speed up the publication process, text files may be sent to the publisher (after the acceptance).
LaTeX files (standard article style) would be appreciated but Plain Tex files or LaTeX files written with the RevTeX styles are accepted.
Files typeset using Word, Wordperfect, MacWrite and plain ASCII (text-only) are also accepted.

To ensure portability between the different installations and systems used, it is highly recommended that authors keep in mind the following restrictions:

1) Word, Wordperfect files should be encoded with public encoding software such as uuencode (for Dos and Unix) and binhex (for Macintosh). Large files should be compressed and/or archived before encoding, using public software such as gzip or tar.

2) TeX/LaTeX files may be transmitted as encoded files or as simple e-mail files. In the latter case, line length should not exceed 80 characters and accented characters should be avoided, i.e., only plain ASCII files with printable characters (codes between 32 and 126) should be sent. Only files that can be typeset with standard format and classical fonts (CM or AMS fonts), without using too personalized style sheets, are acceptable.

3) Graphics such as figures, schemes, etc., should be in separate files. Most package for creating them will allow you to choose a format in which to save your file. TIFF (Tagged Image File Format), PICT, Postscript, Encapsulated Postscript formats are preferred. Figures incorporated into Word files are also acceptable. Large files should be compressed and/or archived with public software, then encoded.

 

*** Please note that files typeset using the software applications Word, Wordperfect, MacWrite and plain ASCII (text-only) need partial retyping. Consequently, proofs should be checked very carefully against the original manuscript. ***
