Overleaf is working great!

A question on the template. Do you want the appendices within the paper template, and if so, do you want to count them towards the 8/16 page count limit? Do you encourage extra details in appendices also on short papers?

The page limit is only for the main text and references. When the appendix becomes too long (not sure how long Is too long), it might be published separately from the proceedings, but don’t worry about it for your submission.

Thanks, very clear! Given that easychair asks for exactly one pdf, can I confirm that you want pdfs not .tex files then at this point?

Yes, for the initial submission, we just want the pdf. Thanks!
