     ftp> mkdir dirname
    
    The directory name, dirname, should be constructed using the first five letter of the PI's last name followed by _ and a number to distinguish between different proposals sent by the same PI. e.g. the first proposal sent by a PI named Einstein should be stored into a directory named einst_1
    ftp> cd dirname
    ftp> bin
    ftp> put your_file.ps
    ftp> quit
    
    The postscript file can be compressed with either the UNIX compress (.Z) or gzip compression. Please do not use other compression methods.
