Radcliffe's IPM World Textbook. From our experience to date, we have some suggestions for contributors. Try to limit your text to 5,000 words. If you send images as electronic files make them large, we can reduce them to the desired size. For most articles, we prefer that the number of pictures not exceed 7 to 10 because loading images over a modem can take a long time.
Tabular material can present problems for some viewers.
Figures that we must scan present special difficulties. If your graphics were computer generated please send us copies of the files these can usually be converted to a format that can be posted on the web. While we usually can handle files transmitted by e-mail it can be helpful to have a backup sent on diskette. We use Word 7.0 for Windows 95 so text files created in Word or WordPerfect are generally the easiest for us to work with since the formatting, e.g., italics, is retained.
