Submission Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors must verify that their submission complies with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned if they do not follow these guidelines.

The submission has not been previously published, nor is it under consideration elsewhere (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).

The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF format.

The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics instead of underlining (except for URLs); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at appropriate points rather than at the end.

The text follows the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.

Figures should be uploaded separately in high resolution 300 DPI to ensure good quality.

A signed Letter of Undertaking by all authors, available in PDF format. Please scan and upload it.

You may suggest two to three potential reviewers to speed up the review process in your Cover Letter or as a separate file. Upload this as a supplementary file. Be sure to suggest only reviewers who have worked in this area, as their comments will be reviewed by the Editorial Committee before any final decision. Please include their names, email addresses, and your submission reference number.
