Thank you for choosing to submit your paper to ACTA Press. On this page, you can find instructions to help move your paper smoothly through peer review, production, and publication. Please follow the instructions thoroughly to ensure your paper matches our journal requirements and to avoid any delays due to formatting issues.

About the Review Process

ACTA Press operates a double-blind review process for its journals to uphold the highest standards of scholarly peer review. Papers deemed suitable will be sent to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers to assess the scientific quality of the paper. ACTA Press publishes the following types of manuscripts:

Original, unpublished papers

Extended and enhanced versions of papers presented at conferences

Surveys

Tutorial papers

NOTE: Submission of a manuscript implies that the work described has NOT been published before in any format and is NOT under consideration for publication anywhere else. Authors wishing to include figures, tables, or text passages that have already been published elsewhere are required to obtain permission from the copyright owner for both the print and online format and to include evidence that such permission has been granted when submitting their papers.

ACTA Press uses Editorial Manager (EM), an online manuscript managing system developed by Aries Systems and adopted by over 2800 journals. Please read the Editorial Manager Tutorial for Authors before making a submission.

Preparing Your Paper

1. Formatting Instructions

The formatting specifications for both initial paper and final paper submissions are identical and must be followed exactly.

Language and Grammar

All papers must be written in English using British or Canadian. Abbreviations are spelled out at first mention, but not thereafter unless there is good reason to do so. For editorial guidelines, refer to The Chicago Manual of Style, seventeen edition, The University of Chicago Press, 2010.

Document Structure

Initial and final papers must contain the following sections: title, abstract, key words, introduction, body, conclusion, and references. Final papers must also include author information (under the title) and biographies (at the end of the paper). Author information is to include each author’s full name, affiliation, postal address, telephone number and email address. One author will need to be identified as the corresponding author. The biography section is mandatory for the final paper and must NOT be present in the initial paper. An acknowledgements section is optional.

Page Limit

Maximum 16 pages (double-spaced, single column, 12-point font), inclusive of illustrations.

NOTE: Authors must submit the final paper in the same format as the initial paper.

2. Check List

We request that you go through the initial paper checklist or the final paper checklist of formatting specifications and check off each item as it is completed. Compliance with these formatting instructions will expedite the publication process and ensure high-quality publication of your work.

3. Initial Paper Submission

You are asked to use our initial paper checklist and initial document template (Latex or Word template) when submitting your paper to ACTA Press. The initial paper and the revised paper MUST be submitted as a Microsoft Word file (“*.doc” and “*.docx”). Upon submission, a reference number will be assigned to the paper that is to be used in all future correspondence.

Authors will be required to suggest two potential reviewers for all new manuscript submissions. Authors should also check their papers for originality before submitting the manuscripts to ACTA Press. Click HERE to access recommended plagiarism check programs.

NOTE: Author names, affiliations, etc. should NOT appear on this manuscript file, nor should biographies be present. We ask that you upload a separate Microsoft Word file called “Cover Page” that includes article title, abstract, author titles, author names, and author affiliations. Author names and affiliation should be placed in separate paragraphs; for example, this:

John Smith, Professor

Stanford University, Serra Mall, Stanford, CA, USA

Not this:

John Smith, Professor, Stanford University, Serra Mall, Stanford, CA, USA

Data included in this file is used to populate information for you later in the submission process.

4. Final Paper Submission

If your paper is accepted, we will ask that you send us a copy of your final paper. Ensure that your final paper is in double-spaced, single column format (same formatting requirements as initial paper submissions). Use our final paper checklist and final document template (Latex or Word template) when making your submission.

Your final paper (text and embedded figures) must be sent as

• an MS Word document,

• an MS Word document and PDF file, or

• PDF file and LaTex file.

NOTE: Camera-ready copies will NOT be accepted.

If high-resolution figures are not already embedded in your final paper, an electronic copy of your figures must be sent along with your final paper. Acceptable figure formats include high-resolution JPEG, TIFF, EPS, PSD, and PDF.

Include a brief biography for all authors at the end of your final paper. Small passport-size photographs of the authors should also be included.

ACTA Press uses Editorial Manager to manage the peer-review process. If this is your first time submitting a paper to ACTA Press, you will be asked to create an account in the submission centre. If you submitted a paper to ACTA Press prior to 2018, you will be asked to update your profile in Editorial Manager’s submission centre and to reset your password.
