Please not
that the IEEE is very strict about the requirements for converting application files or PostScript files to full-text PDF
for inclusion in IEEE XploreŽ. Please follow the instructions in "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore" that describes
the essential steps in distilling PDFs that meet the IEEE requirements. The most important issue that every author shall pay
attention to is to make sure that all the fonts used in your papers are EMBEDDED and SUBSETTED, especially for papers from
Asia and Europe. The "IEEE PDF File Preparation Guide for IEEE Xplore" details the steps for you to check and to make sure
that all fonts used are embedded and subsetted. Failure to embed and subset fonts is the biggest obstacle to PDF compliance
with IEEE XploreŽ and please make sure that your PDF files are compliant with IEEE XploreŽ. Papers failing to meet the IEEE
XploreŽ PDF requirements may be rejected.
