Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
Q: If I have two accepted papers, do I need to pay two registrations? Is there a discount for the second paper?
Yes, you will need to pay one registration for each paper or two registrations for two papers, and there is no discount.
Q: Can I get the receipt (发票) for my registration before the conference?
No. Receipt for your registration will be handed out in Guangzhou during the conference, which at least one author of an accepted paper is required to attend. If you are not able to attend the conference for any reason, the receipt will be mailed to you after the conference.
Q: Can I change the title or authors of my paper?
Yes, you will have an opportunity to make the change when you submit the final materials. Please make sure that the author list and the title in the PDF paper are consistent with those in the submitted data via our system.
Q: Can you arrange to give me more attempts on PDF eXpress as I have run out of my quota?
You will have to email PDF eXpress directly as ROBIO 2012 does not operate PDF Xpress.
