Step 1 is to copy the reference list generated by EndNote (or whatever I was using for that paper) into the section at the end of the paper.

Format each reference like so:


: <sup>[1]</sup> Smith, Smith and Smith.  A very big important paper. pp. 666-667, 2012.
: <sup>[2]</sup> Jones, Jones and Jones. An even MORE important paper, pp. 2-3, 2013.

NOTE that there are no spaces before the colons. The above gives you:

[1] Smith, Smith and Smith. A very big important paper. pp. 666-667, 2012.
[2] Jones, Jones and Jones. An even MORE important paper, pp. 2-3, 2013.
