For iPRES2024 we use the PubPub system to publish your paper and make it available to conference participants and the wider community. For a full overview of all features and how to use them, you can visit the official Pub Pub help webpages. Below you can find some tips & pointers to get started.

Importing your paper

Once you have finalised your paper, you can import your latest version straight into the PubPub editor. Currently the editor allows you to import the following files: .docx, .epub, .html, .md, .odt, .txt, .xml, .tex

If you can’t see the ‘Import Files’ button, clear out all text; the button will appear when the page is blank.

Details about the Latex support are available online: https://help.pubpub.org/pub/latex-compatibility

The Online editor

If you want to edit your paper in the PubPub you can do so using the Online editor. When you edit, make sure your status on the top right is coloured green to ensure your changes are saved.

All functions are documented online: https://help.pubpub.org/pub/pub-editor-reference/

Blockquotes

If you want to put the readers attention on certain texts or quotes, you can use the blockquotes function in the toolbar [“]

Citation

If you want to add citations, you can use the Citation function in the toolbar.

Michael Borthwick:

I would like to move some figures within my paper so that they don’t break paragraphs. It doesn’t appear that you can drag figures up and down to a new location. I assume the way to do this is to delete the figure and re-insert it at the the preferred point?

Dries Moreels:

Exactly, that is the way to do it.
