STEP BY STEP:

1)
Goto /r2/sep72 and create a directory corresponding to your paper and copy your paper in that directory, e.g. cp jon1.tex /r2/sep72/jon1/paper.tex
2)
Create a Cakefile that will print the paper and that will create the figures! (Check if that works by doing: cake figures and cake print).

3)
Create a subdirectory Fig, that contains the figures in vplot and postscript format.

4)
(optional) Create the subdirectories Src, Data, Bin and Lib, and copy all necessary files, e.g.

cp raytrace.r /r2/sep72/jon1/Src/raytrace.r , or

Cp real.H /r2/sep72/jon1/Data/real.H out=/r2/sep72/jon1/Data/_real.H@

5)
Test if your Cakefile is able to generate all figures and make sure the actual data file is there and not only on some scratch directory.

6)
If you have figures that take longer than 1 hour to compute, you should enter them into the file longfigures.

7)
Try to make your figures interactive (bring up movies, etc.). By default, when you click a button on an interactive figure, the figures will be displayed by tube.

8)
Make sure that you don't use absolute pathnames. Use only pathnames that are relative to your paper directory. E.g. you are in /r2/sep72/jon1/Fig and you refer to some data file /r2/sep72/jon1/Data/junk.H, use ../Data/junk.H, instead of giving the absolute name !!!!
