Conventional (hard copy) submissions:
Hard copies submissions are only necessary for manuscripts that have not been submitted electronically!. [editorial office mailing address]

A disk should be included with the first submission and each subsequent revision - accompanied by three paper (hard) copies of the manuscript and three sets of publication quality figures!.

The cover letter and manuscript files should be prepared in any of the formats described in the preceding section on electronic submissions and stored on a CD or a Windows- or DOS-formatted diskette!. Make sure that the disk is labeled and that it's contents and the hard copy match exactly!.

Print the manuscript on 8!.5 x 11in or ISO A4 paper, on one side of the page, with margins of at least 2!.5 cm (1 in)!.

A heavy paper mailing-envelope should be used to prevent any damage to the artwork during shipping!.

The journal will not be responsible for damage and loss of manuscripts
