Before you submit

Three things editors check first

Scope

Does the paper fit the journal's aims and scope? Read each journal's page before choosing.

Originality

Is the work new, properly cited and free of plagiarism? Similarity screening may be used.

Format and completeness

Is the PDF complete, readable and anonymised, with all declarations accepted?

Questions

Common questions

Why must author names be removed from the file?

Reviewing is double-blind. Reviewers must not see who wrote the paper. Enter authors in the submission form instead; the editorial office keeps them.

Can I save a draft and return later?

Yes. Use "Save as draft". You can edit and delete a draft until you submit it.

Can I edit after submitting?

You can edit while the paper is waiting for the editorial check. Once peer review starts, message the editorial office. If a revision is requested, you can edit and resubmit.

What happens after I submit?

An editor checks the paper and either sends it to reviewers, returns it to you, or declines it. After review you receive the decision and the reviewer comments. Every step is visible on your dashboard.

What about fees?

Fee details are published on each journal's Fees / APC page. Authors are told about any charges before acceptance.
