However, the deadline for Preproposals to be submitted was extended only

 Hello again,

 thank you all for your responses to my previous "help!" request.
I don't know
 if we'll have enough time to get a response for this question.
It's IGERT
 again and we're having trouble uploading MacIntosh files.  We
have converted
 the Mac file to a Word file and then to a PDF file via Acrobat
Writer.  It
 still won't upload.  Any suggestions?
