2. Paper size is European A4.
3. Margins are 4cm (top), 2.5cm (left and right) and 2.7cm (bottom).

5. There are no page numbers, or headers and footers, within the paper.

4. However, each page in excess of Eight will incur an additional charge of 100 USD. Our EDAS system will not permit longer papers to be uploaded.

Note : To convert other file formats, such as Microsoft Word, to PDF, you can use online services. Examples include Adobe, PDFonline or FreePDFConvert. There is also free or cheap software that installs as a printer driver and performs that conversion, including PrimoPDF.
