ACTEA 2023 has been registered for use of IEEE PDF eXpress™. IEEE PDF eXpress is a free service to IEEE conferences, allowing their authors to make IEEE Xplore-compatible PDFs (Conversion function) or to check PDFs that authors have made themselves for IEEEXplore compatibility (PDF Check function).

b. Create IEEE PDF eXpress account. The ACTEA 2023 Conference ID: 58025x
c. Upload source file(s) (your manuscripts) for conversion if it is not in PDF format and/or upload your PDF file  for checking if already in PDF format
d. Use IEEE PDF eXpress to attain IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF(s). The site contains extensive instructions, resources, helpful hints, and access to technical support.

4. Submit final, IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF(s) to ACTEA 2023 at https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=30262

Note

Uploading a paper to IEEE PDF Express is not the same as submitting the paper to the conference. You will still need to submit the checked PDF by the normal means through the EDAS website (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=30262).
