4. Manuscripts must be prepared so they can be printed directly onto 8 1/2" by 11" plain white paper.   For those familiar with LaTeX, a copy of the LaTeX macro is provided.  You may have to edit the preamble to be sure you have an inch for the top and bottom margins.

7. Illustrations, graphs, and photographs may fit across both columns, if necessary, but keep the text in two-column format.

If you are using photographs, please have halftones made at a print shop (using an 80- or 100-line screen). If they must be pasted up, use rubber cement to affix the halftones in place.
