Odom Yes, maybe if the person in charge of the site can tell us what format to use to upload the file. I am using the Mac, do I need to upload the files in MacBinary, Stuffit file, BinHex file, etc... What extension do we give the file (hqx for BinHex, sit for StuffIt file, etc.)? For the separate folder, I think this could a good think if the file are not compatible between Mac and PC. Also, maybe if when you upload a Style file, it may be useful to also upload a small text file describing briefly the journal name, what abreviation the style use (first, or second or initial), and also the Email address of the person who uploaded it, that may be useful if somebody has a problem with the style. What do you think? --------------------------------------------------------- Jean-Michel Lacroix, Ph.D., Visiting Assistant Scientist Department of Oral Biology, University of Florida P.O.

Stuffit reduces the size of the files to about half the original size. This saves time and taxpayer dollars during upload/downloads. Files should then be converted to Binhex for ease of FTP; also, since Binhex is ASCII-based it is very easy to tack onto the front some text that gives the pertinent information you suggest.
