ACM paper formatting

ACM formatting depends on venue and submission stage: review copies may be single-column, while final versions often use a two-column template with CCS Concepts, keywords, and the ACM Reference Format. We approximate the appearance; the venue's current official template remains authoritative.

Layout & page

Title, authors, and affiliations · abstract and CCS Concepts · numbered headings · one or two columns per venue guide.

References & citation

Consistent numeric ACM references; IEEE is the closest available option, then we apply the required ACM details.

Tips before upload

  • ·Name the ACM conference or journal and specify review or final submission.
  • ·Supply CCS Concepts and keywords; we do not create them for you.
  • ·Provide rights and conference metadata exactly as issued by ACM.

We approximate the author guide — we are not the journal's final production desk. Content stays yours.
