Before you submit a paper to a conference or journal, you have to write it. But your work isn't done there! The submission process will involve one or more rounds of reviews and possible revisions.

Here's some advice from the Vis09 review chairs:

Address every reviewer comment by pointing to the location in the paper where you made changes that address the comment. If you are not addressing it, make a really compelling argument. If the reviewer made a comment, it was because something was missing in the paper. Reviewer's don't need to read an answer in the response letter; in fact, most don't even see the letter. (It's ok to group detailed comments and respond to the group tersely.)
Make your changes visible in the revision. The decision maker will need to do a diff between your original submission and your revision. Making that a mental process will make him or her crankier than if you make it obvious. Put in change bars (latex has macros for that) or change the text color for text that you changed. You don't need to call out every comma and spelling fix, but make it so that the reviewer doesn't need to read through lots of unchanged text two more times.
