Submitting Your Accepted Article
Immediately after your article is accepted for publication in one of the journals listed above:
-
Send the electronic source files (.tex and .eps) for the final accepted version of the manuscript to the AMS.
-
Send the final version in PDF format to the Editor, who will forward a copy to the AMS for reference copy.

Memoirs is an author-prepared publication. Once formatted for print and on-line publication, articles will be published as is with the addition of AMS-prepared frontmatter and backmatter. Articles are not copyedited; however, confirmation copy will be sent to authors.
