Copy Submission Guidelines

To make sure nothing gets lost in translation, please review the following guidelines before submitting copy to URC Editorial Services.

• Provide your text electronically. E-mail attachments are preferred.
• Save documents in the latest version of Microsoft Word or in "RTF" file format.
• Provide copy as straight text in a single column. Do not attempt to format the copy into multiple columns and do not add any graphics or clip art.
• Use Helvetica or Times New Roman in 12-point size.
• Use all capital letters, underlining, boldface, or italics judiciously.
• Do not use tabs or spaces for paragraph indents. Copy should be flush-left.
• You may put one extra hard return between paragraphs to set them apart.
• Use only one space between sentences.
