The American Institute of Physics has been using author-prepared REVTeX files to produce author proofs since 1992. Author files are converted into code that can be used by Xyvision, AIP's composition system. Therefore, you may have noticed that these compuscripts look exactly like conventionally processed articles.
It is because of this conversion that it is imperative that the guidelines as set forth in the REVTeX input guide are followed exactly. Failure to comply with these guidelines may result in rejection of your file, and your manuscript will then be typeset from scratch.
At this time, all compuscripts follow conventional processing schedules. There are no accelerated schedules for compuscripts, nor are there any page charge reductions.
