The free action for the massless sector of the type II superstring was recently constructed using closed Ramond-Neveo-Schwarz superstring field theory. The supersymmetry transformations of this action are shown to satisfy an N=2 D=10 supersymmetry algebra with Ramond-Ramond central charges. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
