Revise the Accepted Paper
Address the reviewers' comments and complete all approved corrections. Confirm that the paper's technical content, title, abstract, figures, tables, citations, and references are final before preparing the publication version.
Use the IEIR 2026 Camera-ready Checklist to verify the final formatting and record how the reviewers' comments have been addressed.
Prepare the Final Manuscript
Use the official IEIR 2026 template and restore all information removed for double-blind review.
- Restore author names, affiliations, and email addresses
- Restore self-citations, acknowledgements, and identifiers hidden for review
- Use the official IEIR 2026 Word or LaTeX template
- Full paper: 6–8 pages; short paper: 4–6 pages
- Check all figures, tables, citations, and references
- Do not add page numbers
- Remove all template guidance and placeholder text
If the IEEE Citation Reference and the IEIR 2026 paper template differ, the IEIR 2026 paper template takes precedence.
Generate the Final PDF
Generate the camera-ready PDF from the final manuscript. Open the exported file and check every page for correct page size, fonts, equations, figures, tables, references, and page order before starting PDF eXpress validation.
Validate the PDF through IEEE PDF eXpress
IEEE PDF eXpress performs the technical compatibility check required for IEEE Xplore. The Conference ID will be provided to authors by email. Complete the full validation process below.
- Sign in or create a PDF eXpress account
- Enter the Conference ID provided by email
- Create a paper record
- Upload the final PDF
- Review the validation result
- If validation fails, correct the source file, regenerate the PDF, and upload it again
- Repeat the check until the PDF passes
- After validation passes, do not modify the PDF
The PDF submitted to CMT must be exactly the same version that successfully passed IEEE PDF eXpress validation.
If the paper content is changed afterward, generate a new PDF and validate it again before submission.
Submit the Camera-ready Files to CMT
Upload all three required items through the IEIR 2026 Camera Ready tab in CMT:
Required submission files- Editable source files: the editable manuscript files, including DOCX or all LaTeX source files and supporting assets
- Final paper PDF: exactly the same PDF that successfully passed IEEE PDF eXpress validation
- Completed checklist: the IEIR 2026 Camera-ready Checklist form
The paper title, abstract, keywords, author names, author order, and affiliations in CMT must exactly match the final Camera-ready paper.
All three files must be submitted through CMT.
Submissions by email will not be accepted.
Complete IEEE eCF and Verify Metadata
The IEEE eCF system is now available.
Authors may now complete the required IEEE Electronic Copyright Form as instructed by IEIR 2026.
Before the final Camera-ready submission is considered complete, authors must:- Submit all three required camera-ready files to CMT
- Complete the required IEEE eCF
- Verify the final paper metadata
The title, abstract, keywords, author names, affiliations, and email addresses entered in CMT must match the final paper.
