Hi Christine, There is function "produceGEOSubmissionFile" in lumi to produce the GEO submission file in SOFT format. Please check the latest lumi.pdf and related help files for more details. Here is an example of producing GEO submission file: ## Produce the sample information template > produceGEOSampleInfoTemplate(lumi.example, lib.mapping = 'lumiHumanIDMapping', fileName = "GEOsampleInfo.txt") ## After editing the 'GEOsampleInfo.txt' by filling in sample information > produceGEOSubmissionFile(lumi.N.Q, lumi.example, lib='lumiHumanIDMapping', sampleInfo='GEOsampleInfo.txt') During editing the 'GEOsampleInfo.txt', you need to fill in the corresponding Illumina Platform ID, which can be found at GEO website. Tell me if you meet any problems.
