Preparation of manuscript for a CIE

meeting Proceedings

To ensure that all papers are in a form which isacceptable for publication the manuscriptssubmitted by the authors in a camera ready formshould adhere to some rules. It is not intended tostifle originality but rather to ensure that the finalpaper, which has cost the author many hours of research, investigation and preparation, will beappreciated by, and be of benefit to, all who readthe Proceedings.

In order to ensure that proper recognition begiven to the author's work, it is important thatsome basic rules are adhered to and some guide-lines are accepted. The Organising Committeereserves the right to refuse your manuscript incase of non compliance with these instructions.Papers which exceed the stated maximum lengthor stray significantly from the recommendedlayout will not be included in the Proceedings.

1.1 Type and length of papers

The total length of your manuscript, including all

figures and tables, is limited to the length asstated in the letter of acceptance. Please adherestrictly to this limitation, it will not be possible toprint longer manuscripts. Approximately 600words in the format recommended will fit on onepage.

NOTE : The papers will be printed directly fromyour original which should be sent on A4 paper (21 x 29,4 cm). American 8 1/2" x 11" paper isacceptable provided that the text is containedwithin the column space shown: Double columnprint, total print area: 15,2 x 23,3 cm.

 Authors with access to word-processors andlaser printers may choose to produce their manuscript directly on A4 paper. In this case thetext should be set in 9 point Helvetica or 10 pointTimes Roman.

 Authors using typewriters or letter-qualityprinters should produce their manuscripts on A3paper (11"x18" - USA) having Elite type (character width 2,1 mm or 12 characters to the inch). Themanuscript should then be reduced to A4 size (i.e.a linear reduction to 70 % in case of A3 paper) ona good quality photocopier.

Manuscripts should be handed in in triplicate(one original and two good quality photocopies) atthe meeting, protected by heavy board.

 Authors, if they produce their manuscript on aword-processor, are requested to send their contribution also on disk: one file containing themanuscript as an ASCII file, and one in their wordprocessor format (please state the formatprecisely).

1.2 Photo-offset printingReproduction of papers will be made directly fromthe material supplied by the authors. You areasked therefore to:

• adhere strictly to layout instructions detailed insection 2,

• read and correct your text carefully, as noproof reading will be possible.

2. LAYOUT INSTRUCTIONS FOR

MANUSCRIPTS

2.1 Language of the manuscript

Only English language manuscripts are acceptedfor this Proceedings.

2.2 Title

The title of your paper should indicate the subjectas clearly and briefly as possible.

2.1.1 The upper limit for the beginning of the texton the first page is lower than on following pages.This is clearly indicated by the CIE LOGOmarking on this sample paper. This space, acrossthe full width of the page, is reserved for typesetting your title and name at the printers.

•For this reason you are asked to type the titleand author name(s) at the very top of thesheet well outside the format area.

•The page numbering will also be done by theprinter and therefore the numbering of your manuscript pages should also be typed welloutside the format area.

2.3 Abstract

Your paper should begin with a synopsis of thepaper, giving a clear outline of its contents andstating principal results and conclusions.

2.3.1 Start your manuscript  on the lefthand side of 

the page, typing the word "ABSTRACT" (in

CAPITALS). Position this below the title spacestarting at the lefthand vertical format line. Leavea 1,5 space after this heading, then write theabstract of your paper (using single line spacing).Leave a 1,5 space between paragraphs within theabstract. The finished length of each line of typeshould be approximately 73 mm. Never type

outside the format areas.

2.4 Introduction

Leave a two line space, then type at the leftvertical line "1. INTRODUCTION", leave a 1,5space and then start the text again at the leftvertical line, using single space typing, with 1,5space between paragraphs, headings andsubheadings.

2.5 Body of the paper 

Leave a two line space, then type at the leftvertical line "2." and the heading of Sec. 2 of your 

manuscript.Use decimal numbering for all major headings

and sub headings e.g.: 1., 1.1, 1.2, 2., 2.1, etc. Allheadings should be typed in CAPITALS and sub-headings in lower case. Do not underline headingsand sub-headings.

See 2.5.1 for typing second column or movingto continuation pages.

For further information on the use of figuresand tables see paragraph 2.6 and for symbols,units and equations see paragraph 2.8.

2.5.1 When it becomes necessary to continue on

the right hand side of the page forming a secondcolumn, type on the first page to the bottom of thesecond format area. Do not type below that area.

From the second page on, use the full formatareas. You may increase the space beforeheadings or subheadings to get full page lengthcolumns.

2.6 Figures and tables

These should be inserted into the manuscript near to where first mention is made. The size of diagrams, the lettering used on figures and thethickness of lines used should take account of the

reduction if your original is typed on A3 or 11"x18"(USA) paper. Figures and tables can spreadacross both columns, if necessary. For graphs,show only the coordinate axes, or at most themajor grid lines. Figures should be drawn in blackIndian ink if they are not printed by computer graphics. Half tone pictures do not reproduce welland should, if possible, be avoided.

Figures and tables should each be numberedconsecutively. These numbers should appear bothin the text and with captions. The captions shouldbe positioned above tables and below figures.

2.7 References, details of author(s) &

acknowledgements

References cited in the body of the paper shouldbe consecutively numbered, placing the number insquare brackets: [ ]. List all references at the endof your paper under a heading: REFERENCES,giving the information in the following way.

SURNAME of the author (in CAPITALS)initials: full title of paper, official abbreviation of  journal in italics, volume (in bold), pp. first - lastpage of contribution, year of publication (e.g.:JEROME CW: Absolute colour rendering, J. Illum.

Eng. Soc. 4, 25-28, 1974).

For books or monographs, write after the

name(s) of author(s) and the title of the book(monograph) the name of the editor (if appropriate), the publisher, place and year of publication (e.g.: BUDDE W: Physical Detectorsof Optical Radiation, ed.: GRUM F &BARTLESON J, Academic Press, New York,1983).

When the work referred to is an officialpublication of an organisation and where noauthor's name is given the organisationresponsible for the publication should be quoted atthe beginning of the reference (e.g.: CommissionInternationale de l'Éclairage: Colorimetry, CIE 

15.2-1986).

 At the end of your paper, list the name(s) andexact postal address(es) of (all) the author(s)(include e-mail or fax number as well). Finally, if necessary, acknowledgement of support andassistance should be given.

2.8 Symbols, units and equations

 As far as possible, type symbols and equations. If symbols are not available on your typewriter or wordprocessor use black Indian ink to write themin very clearly. Where symbols with subscripts or superscripts are used, increase the line spacingabove or below the line in which they appear, so

that the symbols and indices are clearly legible.Equations should be numbered consecutively

at the righthand side of the column in brackets ( ).

Use only SI-units, and consult the CIEVOCABULARY (CIE  17.4-1987) for the standardterms and symbols. If you use acronyms theymust be defined the first time they appear.
