Steve, good questions. I hope you find these answers helpful. There is no specific template that must be used. Just keep the background graphics to a minimum. We don’t have a formal document numbering system, but most study groups and task forces follow a file naming convention like this: lastname_##_MMYY.pdf Where lastname is the last name (surname or family name) of the presenter and ## is a two digit identifier. If a given presenter delivers multiple presentations at the same meeting, then their first presentation carries the identifier “01”, the second “02” and so on. MMYY is the two digit month and two digit year in which the meeting takes place. Putting it all together, if you were to give two presentations at the January, 2012 interim, the file names would be: shellhammer_01_0112.pdf and shelhammer_02_0112.pdf It is very nice if you submit your presentations using this naming convention, but not an absolute requirement, because the chair will do it for you if necessary. Please take note of the document information fields described in the “Procedure for Presenters”. People often forget to fill these in. Also, take care that the utility you use to produce the PDF does an efficient job of distilling the file. People occasionally have trouble staying under the 1.4 MB file size limit if their PDF distiller is, shall we say, of questionable competence.

I found the following on the web site, which provides a lot of information, http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/802/3/epoc/public/presentproc.html I just have a few other questions. · Is there a specific document template? The wireless WGs have a template that must be used, but it looks like 802.3 does not require a specific template. · Are there any document numbers? The wireless WGs use Mentor and it provides and requires document numbers. As far as I can tell 802.3 does not require a document number. · Is there anything else I need to know? Thanks, Steve |
