ATTENTION:
If you decide to use the word template, please note that the format margins, etc. will probably change since each printer driver acts differently. Please make sure after using these templates that you still verify all the format requirements outline to fix those problems.

Word 2007 and the new Word docx format should not be used.
Docx files will currently cause problems for existing preproduction and production routines. If Word 2007 is unavoidable, back-save to the doc format. However, please note that you must use MathType or the Equation Editor 3.0 and not the more easily accessible, Microsoft Math Editor. When equations built with Microsoft’s Editor are back-saved, they are converted to low resolution graphics and will not be usable.
To use MathType or the old Equation Editor 3.0, you will need to:
Select Object on the Text section of the Insert tab Select MathType/Equation Editor in the drop-down menu.
