Please go to https://www.library.jhu.edu/library-services/electronic-theses-dissertations for more information on formatting requirements, fees, and the submission process for Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs). If you have questions after reviewing the ETDs information, contact etd-support@jhu.edu -- several people monitor this address.

The page about formatting also has information about PDF/A. Several of the MSEL computers have Adobe Acrobat Pro, which can convert to PDF/A. You can also use Word for Windows to create a PDF/A.

All theses and dissertations must be submitted electronically and the library does not offer printing or binding services. If your department does not coordinate printing and binding, you might consider Thesis on Demand or PhD Bookbinding.
