Submission Guidelines & Style Sheet

All submissions: Please email the Editor with any content you would like to submit for publication. Please check the submission deadline and publication schedule below to ensure your content can be included.

If your content needs to be physically submitted, please visit our contact page (click here) for a physical address where the material can be delivered.

Text submissions: Advertorials should be approximately 700 words to fit in the allotted space. Please spell-check and proof-read for clarity. The editor reserves the right to edit for size, spelling and clarity.

Graphic submissions: All common formats are accepted. For best results we recommend original high-contrast images in TIF, EPS and JPG formats, at 200 dpi. Color images should be saved using the CMYK pallette. Black and White images should use the Grayscale pallette. Our email will not accept files greater than 9.5mb. Adobe PDF's work best when submitted within these format guidelines. We cannot accept pictures that are cut-and-pasted into email.

For EXTRA LARGE submissions, please contact us for our DropBox account information where you can upload large files without limits. Visit http://www.dropbox.com for information on how to download and access the service. We do not have facilities to assist you in the technical process of using DropBox on your computer, but we will accept oversized submissions this way if you are able to use this technology.

Graphics embedded in Microsoft Word documents are not high enough quality to print. Submissions made in Microsoft Word format assume all risk for blurriness and color issues in the final printed paper.

When you have a physical image that is not available digitally, we have the facility to scan it into an appropriate file format for submission. Scanning does not result in as high a level of quality as a stock image but is sufficient in most cases. Please contact the editor with regards to your particular situation.
