Useful hints


to authors, photographers, translators and editors

Text
The articles should be 8,000-16,000 characters (including spacing), as agreed with the national editors.

The text should not contain hyperlinks, illustrations/pictures, logos, frames, bo-xes etc. - no columns.

Avoid 'bullets', underlining, use only bold to indicate headings.

Footnotes should be placed at the end of the article as ordinary text, but try to avoid them altogether.

Graphic tables etc. in spread-sheets should also be submitted as separate files or in printed form.

Illustrations
Illustrations can be sent as separate files, either on CD-ROM or as electronically attached file (eps, tiff, jpg).

If illustrations are sent in for example 72 pixel/inch, please note that the illustration will be reproduced in a conside-rably smaller format - about ¼ of the original size - in the finished print. A digital picture must therefore in original size be the equivalent of approx. one A4 page in order to be reproduced as 1/4 page in print. This also applies to screendumps - and remember that screendumps are often blurred.

Non-electronic illustrations, photo-graphs, dias and other forms of printed pictorial material will be scanned.

Please send a print of the logo when one exists.

Mostly for the editors
Bibliographic information is normally not included in the printed edition of the journal (only if it forms part of the actual text). It is possible, however, to include references and links in the web edition, in which case a reference to this will appear at the end of the article in the printed version.

The web edition also provides space for further information about the author, e.g. his CV.

Don't forget:

Captions for illustrations and names of photographer/illustrator.

Portrait of the author.

Permission to publish the article in the web edition.
