ELECTRONIC FORMAT AND MEDIA.
Use MS Word or an equivalent software application that can easily and accurately
convert UFC source files to Adobe PDF. Drafts and final manuscripts must
incorporate figures and tables in proper position within the electronic source files so that
UFC printed from the files will accurately represent the UFC viewed electronically.
Upon approval of the UFC, the preparing activity provides the electronic files (MS
Word and PDF) to the other service offices (refer to the Foreword) by e-mail or file
transfer protocol (FTP), or on 3-inch disk, zip disk, or compact disc. The preparing
activity must ensure that NIBS gets the PDF file for publication on CCB and WBDG.
Additionally, the services may request that the preparing activity bookmark the Adobe
PDF file to allow prompt navigation through the UFC.

Upon approval of a UFC, each service will update its own master list of UFC.
