STEP 1: Format Abstract.
- Abstract must be saved in the rich text format (rtf). In your word processing program, go to the file menu and choose Save As. Change the type to Rich Text Format (RTF).
- We suggest using Arial or Helvetica font for your abstract and whenever possible, try to use the Symbol font in your RTF file for your Greek and Scientific symbols (alpha, beta, gamma, etc.) to ensure correct syntax when the Abstract Books are printed.
- The submitting author for the account must underline their name in the list of authors.
- Only one abstract allowed for each meeting per account.
- Title should be bold and followed by one return. Author list and institution information should be followed by one return.
- Abstract size should not exceed 3.5" x 5" (88.9mm x 127mm).
- Margins for Letter size:
Top - 1" (25.4 mm)

Bottom - 144.6 mm (5.693")
