PREPARATION OF PAPERS FOR “POWER ENGINEERING”
INTERNATIONAL EXPERT MEETING
Jože VORŠIČ, Miran HORVAT, Andrej ORGULAN
ABSTRACT
Instructions providing basic guidelines for preparing camera-ready papers for the
international symposium “Power Engineering”. The document contains information
regarding desktop publishing format, type sizes, and type faces. Style rules are provided that
explain how to handle equations, units, figures, tables and references. This document itself is
an example of the desired layout for papers. This abstract should not exceed 200 words.
1.
INTRODUCTION
Your goal is to simulate, as closely as possible, the usual appearance of typeset papers.
This document provides an example of the desired layout and contains information regarding
desktop publishing format, type sizes and typefaces. For additional information, please refer
to the organisation committee of the meeting at Smetanova ulica 17, 2000 Maribor, Slovenia
(dr. Jože Pihler, Jurček Voh); phone. ++ 386 2 220 70 61, ++ 386 2 220 70 84; fax ++ 386 2
252 54 81 or ++ 386 2 220 72 72.
If you are not able to use desktop publishing techniques, please contact us for further
information.
Start with the Introduction on the first page only if there is enough space for at least three
more lines of text, otherwise start typing on the next page. The paper with all of the
appendices should not exceed 10 pages, if possible.
2.
FULL SIZE CAMERA READY COPY
If you have desktop publishing facilities, (the use of a computer to aid in the assembly of
words and illustrations on pages) prepare your paper in full-size format, on sheets of paper
210 × 297 mm (A4 paper size).
1. Typefaces and Sizes: There are many typefaces and a large variety of fonts (a complete set
of characters in the same typeface, style and size). Please use a proportional serif typeface
such as Times (New) Roman or Dutch. If these are not available to you, use the closest
typeface you can. The type size for the body of the text is 12 point, because we’ll reduce
the size of papers to the final B5 paper size. The minimum size for applications like table

captions, footnotes, and text subscripts is 10 point. Try to follow the type sizes specified in
Table I. As an aid to gauging type size, here are some examples:
This is similar to Times Roman 10 points normal.
This is similar to Times Roman 11 points normal.
This is similar to Times Roman 12 points normal.
This is similar to Times Roman 12 points bold.
This is similar to Times Roman 13 points bold.

2. Format: In formatting your original A4 page, set top margin to about 40 mm, bottom
margin to 25 mm and left and right margin to 25 mm. The text width is about 160 mm.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
3.1
Figures and tables
Figure captions should be below the figures; table captions should be above the tables.
Avoid placing figures and tables before their first mention in the text. Use the abbreviation
“Fig. 1,” even at the beginning of a sentence.
Figure axis labels are often a source of confusion. Try to use words rather than symbols.
As an example, write the quantity “Voltage”, or “Voltage, U,” not just “U.” Put units in
parentheses. Do not label axes only with units.

3.2
Numbering
Number reference citations consecutively in square brackets [1]. Refer simply to the
reference number, as in [2]. Do not use “Ref. [2]” or “reference [2]”.
Do not number pages!
3.3
Abbreviations and Acronyms
Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text, even after they
have been defined in the abstract. Abbreviations such as IEEE, SI, ac, dc and rms do not have
to be defined. Do not use abbreviations in the title unless they are unavoidable.
3.4
Equations
Number equations consecutively with equation numbers in parentheses flush with the right
margin, as in (1). To make your equation more compact, you may use the solidus ( / ), the exp
function, or appropriate exponents. Italicize Roman symbols for quantities and variables, but
not Greek symbols. Use long dash rather than a hyphen for a minus sign. Use parentheses to
avoid ambiguities in denominators. Punctuate equations with commas or periods when they
are part of a sentence.

Be sure that the symbols in your equation have been defined before the equation appears
or immediately following. Use “(1),” not “Eq. (1)” or “equation (1),” except at the beginning
of a sentence: “Equation (1) is ...”
4.
REFERENCES
References are important to the reader; therefore, each citation must be complete and
correct. There is no editorial check on references, therefore an incomplete or wrong reference
will be published unless caught by a reviewer or discusser and will detract from the authority
and value of the paper. Reference to books and papers by authors other than the author are
encouraged.
