Write your manuscript in English! Seek assistance if you are not an expert in the language. Keep the total length down as far as possible.
Each paper should contain a short abstract. Write it in impersonal form with no formulas or references. Provide a list of key words and subject classifications using AMS categories .
List references in alphabetical order and number them. The bibliography style spmpsci is preferred if you use BiBTeX.
Follow the style exemplified by recent papers in BIT! Starting volume 49, 2009, manuscripts are typeset using the Springer svjour3 style. A sample manuscript with BIT choices of options is: BITtemplate.tex. The class files are: svjour3.cls svglov3.clo , for the case they are not already included in your latex installation. A short users guide is at: usrguid3.pdf
Follow the steps prescribed in Submit a new manuscript! At the final step Attach Files, upload your LaTeX file as item Manuscript and then all your figures as item Figure one by one as .eps or .pdf files.
When all your files are uploaded, choose Next and Build pdf for my approval. The EM system then translates your latex into a pdf file with suffix .fdf, which you can look at with command view submission. The class files above, and many common packages, are already included in EM. If something has gone wrong, you get the error messages of the latex translator. To avoid that inconvenience, you are adviced to compile the ms on your local LaTeX, until no error messages occur.
