IEEE PDF eXpress converts the following file types to PDF:

Rich Text Format
Freelance
(La)TeX (DVI and all support files required)*
PageMaker
FrameMaker
QuarkXpress*

Microsoft Word
WordPerfect

*For documents created in formats that do not embed source files, include all support files with the final manuscript in a folder. Put this folder in a compressed archive for submission. If it is possible to embed images in the source document, you should do so to avoid potential issues, such as missing graphics.


IMPORTANT: A DVI (DeVice Independent file) is required for LaTeX conversions, in addition to the associated image files. Make sure that your LaTeX system can output a DVI, otherwise it cannot be converted. Be sure also to check that your images are properly referenced, and that DVI can handle the image file types used (DVI does not handle some newer image types, such as *.png).
