Instructions for Authors
Submission of Manuscripts
Reviewers
A list of four potential reviewers, including full contact information, should be supplied.
References
References to the literature and all notes regardless of their nature (except those in tables) should be numbered in one consecutive series, repetition of references being avoided by using the superscript number corresponding to the original reference. Reference numbers in the text should be typed as superscript numbers and follow terminal punctuation. Bibliographic references to classified documents and reports or to unpublished material not generally available to the scientific public should not be used. Literature references should be arranged and punctuated as follows:
1. H. Jackson, The sacral arcuate lines in upper sacral fractures, Radiology, 145, 35 (1982). References to books should include author, title, volume, publisher, date of publication, and relevant page ranges. Thus:
Italic or boldface type should be clearly indicated, and Greek or unusual characters should be written plainly or explained by annotations. Simple fractional expressions should be written with a slant line rather than in the usual manner, so that only a single line of type is required.
Illustrations
Illustrations submitted (line drawings, halftones, photos, photomicrographs, etc.) should be clean originals or digital files. Digital files are recommended for highest quality reproduction and should follow these guidelines:
- 300 dpi or higher
- sized to fit on journal page
- EPS, TIFF, or PSD format only
- submitted as separate files, not embedded in text files
Color Reproduction
Print + Online Reproduction: $900 for the first page of color; $450 per page for the next three pages of color. A custom quote will be provided for articles with more than four pages of color.
Tables and Figures
Tables and figures should not be embedded in the text, but should be included as separate sheets or files. A short descriptive title should appear above each table with a clear legend and any footnotes suitably identified below. All units must be included. Figures should be completely labeled, taking into account necessary size reduction. Captions should be typed and doublespaced, on a separate sheet. For paper submission, all original figures should be clearly marked in pencil on the reverse side with the number, author's name, and top edge indicated.
Proofs
One set of proofs is sent to the author via email. Proofs should be carefully checked and returned promptly.
Reprints
Each corresponding author of an article will receive a PDF file of the article via email. This file is for personal use only and may not be copied and disseminated in any form without prior written permission from Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
