All ACM Journals and Transactions are electronically produced, so it is imperative that all manuscripts prepared for publication in any of ACM publications be prepared in electronic formats. Articles published in ACM Journals/Transactions are prepared for both print and digital display in the ACM Digital Library. The instructions contained herein are meant to make the process of manuscript preparation as straightforward as possible. Currently, we can only accept submissions in either LaTeX or MS Word format.

If you are going to prepare your manuscript in LaTeX, please go to the following directory for further instructions:

If you prefer to prepare your manuscript in MS Word, please go to the following directory:

Some of the journals/transactions have specific production requirements. If you are interested in submitting to TOG, for example, you should check TOG home page as well:  http://tog.acm.org

All ACM journals use ScholarOne's Manuscript Central system to handle their submissions. When you are ready to submit your article to one of ACM's journals, please go to the following website:
