Note: This template’s green text are guidelines to assist you in writing and submitting your paper. All green
text should be deleted prior to submitting your paper, except the footer and page numbers.
The paper submissions deadline is Friday 5 September 2014 at 5pm. Papers are to be sent in this Word
document template to Karen Astwood, IPENZ Heritage Advisor, email: heritage-advisor@ipenz.org.nz.
These guidelines aim to ensure that papers appearing in the conference proceedings are uniformly
presented. Papers that do not meet the formatting requirements will not be considered for inclusion in the
conference by the Organising Committee. It is also the responsibility of the authors to check for
typographical and grammatical mistakes. The Organising Committee does not have resources to edit
papers.
Authors of accepted papers will be notified by email by Thursday 18 September 2014. Comments may be
provided. Amended papers are required by Monday 6 October 2014 at 5pm.
Abstract
[Insert abstract here]
The abstract provides a clear and concise summary of the paper. Aspects of the paper to highlight in the
abstract include: the study/research objectives, brief background information, an outline of the work
undertaken, and the main findings of the paper. Because it is a summary, the abstract will only mention
material already included in the main body of the paper.
Formatting and other details
The paper should be prepared and submitted
electronically in Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx)
format so that it can be directly incorporated into
the proceedings for electronic distribution at the
conference on a CD-ROM/USB flash drive.
You must adhere to the style of this template, e.g.
use of heading styles, single line spacing, column
format for the main paper and Arial 10 pt for main
text.
There is no word limit for papers. However, a
paper’s length should be moderated by the fact
that the information needs to be conveyed in a
conference presentation of approximately 20
minutes in duration.

Introduction
[Insert introduction here]
The introduction’s purpose is to outline the
rationale for the paper, its objectives, and
summarise key background information to provide
context for the paper’s main body discussion.
2.
Heading 1
[Insert text here]
The main body discussion should be set out
logically. Use subheadings where appropriate but
keep the hierarchy simple (no more than three
levels).

Figures and Tables
All figures and tables should be fully legible onscreen at 100 per cent viewing. Figures and
Tables may span both text columns if necessary.
All Figures and Tables are to be embedded in the
electronic file of the paper as a borderless picture
or object, and not provided as separately linked
files.
Diagrams or photographs can be inserted into the
paper as Figures. Colour or greyscale Figures can
be inserted. Figures should be inserted as soon as
possible after they are first referred to in the text.
The text reference to a Figure will use a capital F
(e.g. “This feature is shown in Figure 1”).
Each Figure needs to be numbered consecutively
(Figure 1, Figure 2 etc.) and have an appropriate
level of caption information. The caption format is
Arial 9pt. Captions should be no longer than three
sentences. You are required to state the
image/diagram title and then provide brief
explanatory text. It is the responsibility of the
author to secure permission and pay
reproduction/publication fees for all Figures
included in the paper.
