NC2026_Paper_Template_Word_Instructions.pdf should be the same as the .pdf output you get when you create a .pdf from NC2026_Paper_Template_Word.docx file.   I suggest that you first try to do this to see that you have everything necessary to create a .pdf exactly like NC2026_WORD_Paper_Instructions.pdf. 

Once you have sorted out any problems, then I suggest you copy the .docx template file to NC_2026_YYYY.docx, where YYYY is your corresponding abstract number (with zeros in front to make it 4 digits long, e.g. if  12 is your abstract submission number YYYY = 0012, and start editing it to produce your paper.  That way you will still have NC2026_Paper_Template_Word.docx as a reference.

Note double check any Congress-Specific instructions on final naming of your file. These should be posted on the NC26 website.

Styles have been set up in the WORD file for INCE papers, so that it should be relatively easy for you to be consistent in formatting. These are styles such as "INCE Heading 1", "INCE Normal", "INCE Title", etc.  You can see all of the INCE styles if you Click on "Home" (top left corner) to see all the commands under that button,  and then click on the down arrow UNDER and in the middle of the first few styles shown. That should show you the complete list of INCE Styles.  After headings, the style should automatically revert to the "INCE Normal" style. 

ABSTRACT, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, REFERENCES are all INCE Heading 1, but are then centered and NOT numbered.  Other, numbered Heading Styles are left justified.
