Detailed Instructions for Camera-Ready Copy

Page limit is 12 pages, on 8 1/2" X 11" paper.
Use 9 pt Times roman font for the main body of the paper.
Spacing between lines should be 10pt.
Use 8 1/2'' X 11" paper for the copy ready version. If you are formatting your paper outside America, placing this sequence of sizing instructions in your LaTeX source file will help.
You must use two column format. Each column must be 3.33" wide, with a 0.33" spacing between the columns.
Left and right margins must each be 0.75". Top margin must be 0.75", and the bottom margin must be 1.00". Thus, the printed height of the text will be 9.25".
Leave 1" white space below the fist column on the first page for ACM to fill in the copyright information. DO NOT print a copyright message in this space (or any other place on the paper).
Here is the LaTeX style file acmconf.sty that will help you to format your paper to the above specifications. Here is an example of a sample source file sample.tex And, here is the postscript file sample.ps that is generated by sample.tex.

Copyright information

ACM will not publish any paper that is not accompanied by a signed copyright form. If your paper has more than one author, only the author whose name appears first on the paper must sign the copyright form. Here is the copyright form.
