Submissions & Format: 
Submissions should follow ACL Author Guidelines
https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=ACL_Author_Guidelines and
policies for submission, review and citation, and be anonymised for double
blind reviewing. ACL 2020 offers both LaTeX style files and Microsoft Word

http://acl2020.org/downloads/acl2020-templates.zip, an Overleaf template is
also available here -

ptpcd.  
Papers should be submitted electronically through the START conference
management system (to be opened in due course).

Three kinds of papers can be submitted:
- Long papers are most appropriate for presenting substantial research results
and must not exceed eight (8) pages of content, with up to two additional
pages for references.  The final versions of long papers will be given one
additional page of content (up to 9 pages) so that reviewers’ comments can be
taken into account.

- Short papers are more appropriate for presenting an ongoing research effort
and must not exceed four (4) pages, with up to one extra page for references.

- Demo papers should be no more than two (2) pages in length, including
references, and should describe implemented systems which are of relevance to
the NLG community. Authors of demo papers should be willing to present a demo
of their system during INLG 2020.

All accepted papers will be published in the INLG 2020 proceedings and
included in the ACL anthology. A paper accepted for presentation at INLG 2020
must not have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available
proceedings. Dual submission to other conferences is permitted, provided that
authors clearly indicate this in the ''Acknowledgements'' section of the paper
when submitted. If the paper is accepted at both venues, the authors will need
to choose which venue to present at, since they can not present the same paper
twice.
