A.: Please read instructions in the Documents section of the web site. You must send only one PDF file composed of three A3 format pages.
Q.: Maximum size of the project file
A.: The limit on the size of the PDF file is 60 Mb, but we recommend to try to avoid going over 10-15 Mb, to minimize risks due to slow internet connections during the project transmission.
Q.: Project transmission
A.: Please read instructions in the Documents section of the web site. After registration you will receive an email containing the unique address (URL) that you must use to continue the registration and trasmission procedure. Using that address you will be able to access your personal page, add group members and transmit your PDF project. The project can be even sent more than one time (the last received is the valid one). We strongly recommend to anticipate the registration and trasmission, avoiding the last day. Due to the big amount of operations, we cannot assure that the server will not be too busy to satisfy your request before the closing time !
