Conditions

• A paper with black-and-white figures whose total length in print is max. 16 pages will be published free of charge both in print and online.
  To evaluate how many journal pages can result from a manuscript, please first remove the tables and pictures from the file and then perform character count (including spaces) [e.g. in MS Word: select 'Word Count' from 'Tools' menu], and divide the resulting number by 4600 (max. number of characters on one printed page of our journal). Some pages should be added to the result depending on how many figures and tables are in the manuscript (usually it is enough to add 0.5 page per each figure or table).
• If an article's lentgh in print exceeds 16 pages, a page charge (to be paid prior to printing) of 30 euros per each page over 16 will apply.
• Colour illustrations:
  • Due to high printing costs, any colour illustration(s) that must be printed in colour should be paid for prior to printing.
    The current charge for colour printing is 510 euros/printer's sheet (16 pages), regardless of the number of colour illustrations that are printed on it. If illustrations occupy more than one printer's sheet, the charge is multiplied by the number of sheets.
  • There is also an option of having illustrations printed in black-and-white with their colour versions online.
    In such a case no charges apply. Authors, however, should ensure that both version are equally informative.
• Article collections on specific subjects (theme issues) are at the moment published for a fee of 60 euros per printed page.
