<h3>Upload screen</h3>
<p>
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 a plain-text version will cause an error, and an error screen will be displayed.

Failure to submit at least one of a plain-text or xml version will cause an error, and an error screen will be displayed.

<h3>Validation screen</h3>
<p>
After a user uploads a plain-text version, or multiple versions of an I-D, the tool will parse the plain-text version, validate the I-D, and display the validation results with option(s) for next steps. The validation includes: checking for all IPR-related notices and I-D boilerplate described in <a href="https://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.html">Guidelines to Authors of Internet-Drafts</a>; the required sections described in <a href="https://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html">the I-D Check List</a>; the version number; and the creation date.
