    Preparation of illustrations and figures

    Illustrations
    Illustrations should be provided as separate files, not embedded in the text file. Each figure should include a single illustration and should fit on a single page in portrait format. If a figure consists of separate parts, it is important that a single composite illustration file be submitted which contains all parts of the figure.

    Please read figure preparation guidelines for detailed instructions on maximizing the quality of your figures.

    Formats
    All figures should be submitted in TIFF or JPEG formats with resolution of at least 300 dpi.

    Figure legends

    The legends should be included in the main manuscript text file at the end of the document, rather than being a part of the figure file. For each figure, the following information should be provided: Figure number (in sequence, using Arabic numerals - i.e. Figure 1, 2, 3 etc); short title of figure (maximum 15 words); detailed legend, up to 300 words.

    Please note that it is the responsibility of the author(s) to obtain permission from the copyright holder to reproduce figures or tables that have previously been published elsewhere.
