This page will explain the purpose and content of each screen in the I-D Submission Tool, and the actions that result by clicking the form buttons on each screen.
The specification for this tool can be found in <a href="https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4228.txt?number=4228">RFC 4228</a>.

Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other
groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts.
</p>

<p>
Internet-Drafts are draft documents, and are valid for a maximum of
six months. They may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other
documents at any time.

The Upload screen is the first screen that a user will see when he or she starts the I-D submission process. A user can submit four different formats of an I-D, plain text, XML, PDF, and postscript, at the same time. Failure to submit at least one of a plain-text or xml version will cause an error, and an error screen will be displayed.
