Figures
Figures must be submitted in electronic file, preferably saved as jpg, tiff or cdr. We can not accept figures created in Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, Excel as they are low-resolution graphics, not suitable for reproduction.

Please consult the recent issue of our journal as to the size of the figures.
Tables should be created with Word’s Insert Table function. Avoid tables built with tab key or as pictures. Tables should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals and referred in the text. The header should be placed on top of the table. Please make sure that the size of the tables is adequate to the layout of the journal’s page (16 × 24.7 cm).
Final version of the publication
All manuscripts are peer-reviewed by two referees and will not be processed further until favorable reports are obtained. The decision about publication is made by the Editor-in-Chief.
Once the review/revision process is finished, and the paper is accepted for publication, the corresponding author may be asked to prepare its final version, according to the template available at: http://pub.igf.edu.pl/. We will then inspect it and make some editorial adjustments (if necessary). The pdf file will be sent back for proof-reading.
