To test and convert your paper to IEEE PDF eXpress compatible version, you should upload it to the conference dedicated IEEE PDF eXpress website. Your paper acceptance notification email will also include the conference ID needed for the IEEE PDF eXpress. You will need to follow these instructions to convert your paper:

  • Log in to the IEEE PDF eXpress site: http://www.pdf-express.org/
  • First-time users should do the following:
    1. Select the New Users - Click Here link.
    2. Enter the following:
      • 50787X for the Conference ID
      • your email address
      • a password
    3. Continue to enter information as prompted. An Online confirmation will be displayed and an email confirmation will be sent verifying your account setup.
