- Papers should be kept to a maximum of 20 A4 pages. The short communication value should not exceed 10 pages.
- The number of co-authors should not exceed 5, generally.
- Tables should be formatted in the same style as the main text.
- Font: Times New Roman 14 pt. Text must be 1.5 spaced. Font size for large tables may be 12 pt. Top margin 2 cm, bottom margin 2 cm, left margin 3 cm, right margin 1.5 cm, page numbers included, paragraph indent 1 cm. No hyphenation at line breaks.
- Figures ( in .tiff, .jpeg formats) should be submitted in separate files. All figures should be black and white or greyscale.
- Equations should be formatted in MathType (but not in MS Word Equation Editor). Simple equations, symbols and notations may be formatted without using MathType.
