The Upload screen is the first screen that a user will see when he or she starts the I-D submission process. A user can submit four different formats of an I-D, plain text, XML, PDF, and postscript, at the same time. Failure to submit at least one of a plain-text or xml version will cause an error, and an error screen will be displayed.
