Post-acceptance, text files of the revised manuscript and tables are required for use in production. Authors should clearly indicate the location(s) of tables and figures in the text if these elements are given separately or at the end of the manuscript. If this information is not provided to the editorial office, we will assume that they should be placed at the end of the text.
First-time Submission of Manuscripts
Authors may include a cover letter with their manuscript. If so, please explain why you consider your manuscript to be suitable for publication in Journal of Transcultural Communication (JTC), why your paper will inspire the other members of your field, and how it will drive academic discussion forward.
Submission of Revised Articles
Resubmitted manuscripts should be accompanied by a letter outlining a point-by-point response to Editor’s and reviewers’ comments and detailing the changes made to the manuscript. A copy of the original manuscript should be included for comparison if the Editor requests one. Please return the revised article within the required timeframe.
For resubmitted manuscripts, please provide us with an editable text and publication-quality figures. Supply any figures as separate high-resolution, print-ready digital versions. In addition to the editorial remarks, authors are asked to take care that they have prepared the revised version according to the Journal’s style.
