Abstract
Page
Please submit a completed,

author, and

Memo File Formats
To facilitate ease of information access, it is preferable if you would
submit files in pdf or postscript format. If necessary you may submit the file in Word
or WordPerfect format. Please remember to include the EVLA memo number
on the
document.
PDF files:
Please generate the pdf files to be readable by Adobe’s Acrobat
reader. Newer
versions of Microsoft Word or
WordPerfect provide an easy translation into PDF.
Memo
Style
The EVLA memos are meant to be an informal means of communication.
Their
internal structure or style is not regulated, however because of the
wide
distribution of the memos, care should be taken to ensure their
legibility and
coherence. The first page of the memo should clearly state the memo
number,
title, author(s), and date of the memo, and a reference list should be
included
where necessary.
