Mathematische Nachrichten – Guide for Authors (October 2019) 1

GUIDE FOR AUTHORS

General Information

Only original papers not yet published and not

simultaneously submitted for publication elsewhere

will be accepted.

All papers must be submitted via the online system:

http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/mana.

If assistance is needed (or if for some reason online

submission is not possible), please contact the

Managing Editor (joerg.seiler@unito.it).

Submission Instructions

Mathematische Nachrichten have adopted a new

article layout. New LaTeX stylefiles are in

preparation. For the time being, the old templates

LaTeX_stylefile.zip or any other classfiles can be

used.

Articles will be converted into the new layout by the

typesetter. Any source LaTeX code will be converted

to XML, as this is an essential prerequisite for online

publication. The XML version will then be used to

create the final output in the current journal layout.

Original submissions

Please submit online the following:

1) A PDF translation of the TEX file (fonts embedded;

file designation "main document").

2) A TEX file of your paper (fonts embedded; file

designation "supplementary material not for review")

3) Graphics may be included in PDF or uploaded

separately.

Revised submissions

Please submit online the following:

1) A PDF translation of the TEX file (fonts embedded;

file designation "main document").

2) A TEX file of your paper (fonts embedded; file

designation "supplementary material not for review")

3) Graphics need to be uploaded as separate files in a

graphics format such as TIFF, EPS, JPG, PDF with a

resolution of 300 dpi or higher. For graphics files

choose the designation "Image".

Note that T3 fonts cannot be used.

5. You are required to upload your files:

Click on the Browse button and locate the file

on your computer.

Select the designation of each file in the drop-

down next to the Browse button.

before sending to the Editors. Click the

Submit button.

Note that when multiple files are uploaded ("Main

Document" and "Image"), the system generates a

single PDF file.

Color Figures

Please note that color figures will generally remain in

color in the electronic version of your paper, but will

be printed in black/white. Color figures for the printed

version can be purchased using the reprint order form.

Copyright

Your article cannot be published until the publisher has received the appropriate signed license agreement. Once your article has been received by Wiley for production the corresponding author will receive an email from Wiley’s Author Services system which will ask them to log in and will present them with the appropriate license for completion. Please be aware that this can take upto a few days.

Prior to publication, authors will receive page

proofs by e-mail in PDF format. Authors should

keep in mind that reading proofs is their

responsibility. Corrections should therefore be

clear. Corrections listed in an electronic file

should be sorted by line numbers. The use of

standard proof correction marks is recommended.

TEX files may be slightly modified by the typesetter

to follow the general presentation rules of the journal.

The main aim of proofreading is to correct errors that

may have occurred during the production process, and

not to modify the contents of the paper. The

reproduction of art work, the layout of the pages

and breaks in equations introduced by the production

staff should carefully be checked. Corrections that

may lead to a change in the page layout should be

avoided. Note that sending back a corrected

manuscript file is of no use.

Please correct your page proofs and return them

within 14 days together with the completed reprint

order form and the signed copyright agreement to the

Coordinating Editor: marilene.balbi@t-online.de. The

editors reserve the right to publish your article with

editors' corrections if your proofs do not arrive in time.
