Submission Guidelines

 

Text must be submitted in an MS Word document or a rich-text (RTF) formatted document. Please do NOT use any format styles or page breaks. Tables may be included in the text file but do NOT embed any graphics (photos, graphs, diagrams, etc.).

 

Graphics & Table Labels. Tables must be labeled in order of their reference and/or placement in the paper (e.g. the first table referred to is ÒTable 1Ó, the next, ÒTable 2Ó, and so on). Every other graphic (photos, diagram, graphs, etc.) is a ÒFigureÓ. All figures must be labeled according to reference and/or placement, as well.

 

Graphics & Table Placement. Indicate your recommended placement for all tables and graphics in the text file by entering specific placement instructions in the proper place (e.g. PLACE FIG 1 HERE). The editors will place each graphic as close to the desired position as possible.

 

Captions. Provide all table and figure captions at the end of the text file. Be sure to properly label and number the captions to correspond with the graphic (e.g., Table 1; Figure 3, etc.).

 

Photographs and drawings must be submitted as jpg, tiff, giff, or png files. EACH graphic MUST be in its own file. Do NOT include text in the graphics.

 

Graphs must be submitted in MS Excel in black-and-white format. These will be edited for text style and coloring/patterns as needed.

 

Submission deadline is 19 August, 2011
