As described in Chapter 7, a Phase I proposal consists of a completed APT proposal form and an attached PDF file. The present chapter describes the items that must be addressed in the attached PDF file. As described in Section 7.2, template files are available in several popular word-processing environments for the creation of the PDF file. Chapter 8 describes the items that must be filled out in the APT proposal form. You must use Adobe Acrobat (or equivalent software) to properly view and print the PDF attachment in APT.

Your PDF Attachment should obey the page limits discussed in Section 7.1.3. There is a limit on the total number of pages, as well as on the amount of text in the ‘Scientific Justification’ section.
