All conference articles submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore must be in Xplore-compatible PDF format. To verify/obtain your camera-ready Xplore-compatible paper, follow the instructions below:
Log in to the IEEE PDF eXpress site (https://www.pdf-express.org/)
First-time users should do the following:
Select the “New Users – Click here” link
Enter the following:

Continue to enter information as prompted
An Online confirmation will be displayed and an email confirmation will be sent verifying your account setup.
Previous users of PDF eXpress need to follow the above steps, but should enter the same password that was used for previous conferences. Verify that your contact information is valid.
After executing all steps, you will obtain an Xplore-compatible PDF that must be submitted on EDAS.
3) Submit PDF on EDAS
Submit your Xplore-compatible PDF on EDAS. After submission, verify if there are problems reported in the property Final manuscript just after the document (PDF). If so, please fix the problems and return to step 2).
