Before you start writing

Write in the format of the route your paper is published on

An abstract is written in English only and needs no file: it is typed into the form on the submission page — it is all you need to take part. A full paper (optional) or a journal article is written in the Word template below and uploaded on the submission page.

For length and similarity requirements, see the Call for Papers.

Word file or form?

An abstract needs no Word file

You type the abstract, in English, straight into the form on the submission page: title, abstract, keywords and authors. There is no file to upload, and it takes a few minutes.

For a full paper or an article, the template saves you work

Import a file written in the template on the submission form and the title, abstract, keywords, sections and references land in their fields by themselves. You can also type the text into the form yourself; the Word (.docx) file is uploaded either way.

Four rules for the full-paper and article templates

The grey instruction block at the top of the template explains them in full; delete it once read.

  1. Fill in the blanks

    Everything in double square brackets is a blank. Replace it, brackets included, with your own text; a blank left in place is not imported.

    [[Article title]]
  2. Keep the paragraph styles

    The system recognises the title, abstract, keywords, headings and references by their Word paragraph style, not by size or colour.

    TITLE_orclever · Main_Header_orclever
  3. Mark where each figure goes

    Do not paste the image. Put an anchor on its own line with the caption below it; you upload the image file when you submit.

    [[FIGURE:fig-1]]
  4. Leave author details out of the file

    Names, affiliations and ORCID iDs are entered and verified in the submission's Authors step. Reviewers read this file.
