Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Processing Technologies for the Forest and Bio-based Products Industries (PTF BPI 2014) Kuchl/Salzburg, Austria, September 24-26, 2014 PAPER TITLE (maximum two rows if needed) First author's Name SURNAME First author's affiliation, Street, City, COUNTRY Second author's Name SURNAME Second author's affiliation, Street, City, COUNTRY Third author's Name SURNAME Third author's affiliation, Street, City, COUNTRY Corresponding author e-mail Key words (Arial 10 Italic, bold, centered, single spacing) ABSTRACT The abstract (Arial 10 pt., italic, justified, line spacing exactly 12 pt., style “AbstractPTFBPI2014”) should not exceed 500 words and should appear on the top of the first page, after the title of the paper in chapter titled "Abstract" (without chapter number), after the key words. 1 INTRODUCTION (Arial 11 pt., bold, left, uppercase, indent hanging 0,63, line spacing exactly 13 pt., style “ChapterPTFBPI2014“) It is expected that authors will submit carefully written and proofread material. Papers should clearly describe the background of the subject, the authors work, including the methods used, and concluding discussion on the importance of the work. Papers are to be prepared in English and SI-units shall be used. Acronyms should be written out at their first appearance. Do not mix complete spellings and abbreviations of units: “kg/m3” or “kilograms per cubic meter,” not “kilograms /m3”. Spell units when they appear in text: “...a few grams,” not “...a few g.” 2 PAGE STYLE Please note the following guidelines for formatting: 2.1 Paper length For papers accepted for oral and poster presentations, the length should not exceed 8 pages. 2.2 Paper format The uniform outlook will help the reader to follow the proceedings. This can be obtained most easily if authors use this template file to construct their papers. Please note the following details: this template is an A4 format with: top 2,5 cm, bottom 2,5 cm, left 2,5 cm, right 2,5 cm. All text paragraphs should use the style (Arial 10 pt., justified, first line 0,5 cm, line spacing exactly 12 pt, style “PTFBPI2014”). Text style, position and style of headings and subheadings should follow this example. Please DO NOT change any of the mentioned page, paragraph and font settings. 2.3 Equations Each equation should be presented on a separate line from the text with a blank space above and below. Equations should be clear and expressions used should be explained in the text. The equations should be numbered consecutively at the outer right margin, as shown in Eq. (1) below. You can also use a table with one raw and two columns (margins not visible) to insert the equation and its caption. Q m c P ...(1) Please do not leave any space between a value and its unit of measure. 1 First author’s surname et al. Session XXXXXXX 2.4 Tables and Figures 2.4.1 Figures Figure captions and table headings should be sufficient to explain the figure or table without needing to refer to the text. Figures and tables not cited in the text should not be presented. For Figures is used the Style “FigureCaptionPTFBPI2014” (Arial 9 pt., justified, line spacing exactly 11 pt., space after 12 pt). The following is the example for Figure 1. Figure 1. Title of Example Figure (Barbu et al. 2014) 2.4.2 Tables Table 1. Title of Example Table (Arial 10 pt, left, line spacing exactly 10 pt, space before 12 pt, space after 13 pt, style “TableCaptionPTFBPI2014”) Col 1 Col 2 1 Table body first 2 Table body last Col 3 1.00 1.00 Col 4 2.00 2.00 Col 5 3.00 3.00 This is an example for a footnote. Tables and figures should be placed close after their first reference in the text. All figures and tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals. Figure captions should be centered below the figures. Table headings should be centered above the tables. 3 REFERENCES Reference numbers in the text should be designated by round brackets, e.g. (Petutschnigg et al. 2009). The references (Harvard Citation Style) should be listed in the same order as cited in the text (Arial 10 pt., justified, single spacing, “RefTextPTFBPI2014”).
