Submitting Supplemental Material for Conference PublicationsThis document contains instructions for the formatting and submission of supplementalmaterial for inclusion on a CD-ROM publication which documents a program at aSIGGRAPH-sponsored conference or workshop.

"Supplemental material" is additional material which will help better document your mainsubmission, be it a paper or a course or an animation. This material can include, but is notrestricted to, images, QuickTime or MPEG animations, source code, and HTML or VRMLpresentations. You are not required to submit supplemental material, only encouraged.

Overview (or, "The Big Picture")If you choose to submit supplemental material to enhance your main submission, you'llneed to prepare this material in accordance with the guidelines in this document anddeliver it to the appropriate production editor for the conference's CD-ROM publication bythe deadline noted below.

Deadline InformationThe deadline for the receipt of your supplemental material is 28 April 2000. This is a firmdeadline. The CD-ROM production editor who will receive your material will be receivingmaterial from many other people, and will need to process all of it in a very short time.

Delivery and Contact InformationPlease follow these instructions for making your supplemental material available for theCD-ROM production editor: 

 

- If you have more than one file to submit, use a archive-creation tool ("pkzip" onPCs, "tar" on UNIX, "Stuffit" on Macintosh) and create one archive file to bedelivered.

- Make the single file available online at your Web or FTP site, and send e-mail toLou Katz, the CD-ROM production editor for the SIGGRAPH 2000 EAAC and CAACD-ROMs, at "[email protected]" with the location and name of your file.

- If you cannot make the file available at your Web or FTP site, please send e-mailto Lou Katz at "[email protected]" and he will create a directory for you intowhich you can upload your file.

 

Copyright InformationAll material used by the author in their supplemental must have proper copyright clearance.If you are unsure of the copyright status of particular images, sounds, or video clips used inyour supplemental material, please contact the ACM SIGGRAPH Director for Publications,Stephen Spencer, at "[email protected]" immediately.

File FormatsAs mentioned above, supplemental material can include a number of different formats:images, source code, HTML presentations, multimedia presentations, or Quicktime orMPEG animations. There are a few guidelines which should be followed when consideringsubmitting supplemental material of specific types.

Still ImagesThe preferred format for still images is TIFF. JPEG and GIF images are acceptable, thoughthe image quality will not be as high as with TIFF. If you do submit TIFF images, pleasemake sure they are not LZW-compressed.

QuickTime and MPEG AnimationsAnimation files in QuickTime and MPEG formats will be accepted as supplementalmaterial. If you submit a QuickTime animation, please make sure that it is compressed withthe Cinepak codec. Other codecs are not universally readable, and uncompressedQuickTime movies are far too large to be placed on the CD-ROM.

Papers, Technical Notes, PowerPoint PresentationsDocuments such as these should be converted to Adobe Acrobat ("PDF") format or toPostScript format before submitting. Adobe Acrobat format is preferred.

HTML, VRML, and JavaHTML presentations, VRML presentations, and Java presentations are acceptable assupplemental material. There are two very important guidelines to follow, however: 

 

(1) your presentation should not require links to external resources for navigationelements (buttons, images, or other artwork)

(2) the ISO-9660 file naming format must be followed. Presentations which do notconform to the "8.3" naming format will not be processed and placed on theCD-ROM. (For more information, please see the "File and Directory Naming"section below.)

 It is suggested that authors prepare "zip" or "tar" archives of material that does not conformto the "8.3" file naming formats for inclusion as supplemental material, and instructions forthe user on the preparation of that material.

File and Directory NamingAll SIGGRAPH CD-ROM publications follow the ISO 9660 Level 1 standard, in order tosupport as many computer platforms as possible.

Certain guidelines must be followed when naming file and directories under the ISO 9660standard:

 

 

(1) Filenames are limited to eight lower-case letters, a period, and athree-character file extension. The extension is optional.

(2) Filenames must contain only lower-case letters, numbers, and the underscorecharacter.

(3) Directory names are limited to eight lower-case letters. The following examples show valid and invalid filenames: 

 

VALIDsponge.docfig_17a.tifdatabase.htmreadme.ed

INVALIDSponge.docfigure_17a.tifdatabase.htmlreadme (ed)

REASONupper-case letterstoo many characterstoo many charactersillegal space and parentheses

 Certain standard filename extensions should be used in the preparation of yoursupplemental material for consistency and ease of use. The following examples show anumber of these extensions and their file types: 

 

EXTENSION.mov.mpg.pdf.txt.gif.tif.jpg.ps.htm

FILE TYPEQuickTime animationMPEG animationAdobe Acrobat PDFASCII textGIF imageTIFF imageJPEG imagePostScript documentHTML document

 Documentation of Your Supplemental MaterialIf you have instructions that you wish only the production editor to see and read, include anASCII text file named "readme.ed" in your submission. This file will not be included on theCD-ROM.

If you have instructions for the end user, include an ASCII text file named "readme.usr" inyour submission. This file will be included on the CD-ROM.
