\nIf a work is accepted for publication, it appears letter-for-letter as submitted.
\nSubmissions with obvious typographic errors will be rejected.
\nWe reserve the right to format copy to our layout standards.<\/strong>
\nPlease also note that due to tight deadline and printing timelines,
\nrevisions likely will not be even possible after a work is accepted.
\nTherefore, please only submit works you’re fully confident in having published.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
\nBe aware that any formatting you use in your document will be changed to fit our layout specifications.
\nDon’t get fancy unless you have something that is required for the piece (such as special formatting for a poem.)
\nWe STRONGLY encourage very general formatting for most written work.
\nYour font\u00a0will<\/strong>\u00a0be changed, we don’t use indents for paragraph breaks, and we will re-format as needed.
\nPlease keep the formatting simple.
\nSee below, as well.<\/p>\n
\nIf you feel you must have embedded images, please email us before submitting.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nPlease email us FIRST if you want to submit a PDF for a text piece.<\/strong>
\n(WHEN IN DOUBT, DON’T SEND PDF UNLESS YOU’RE ABSOLUTELY SURE THE TEXT MUST BE IN A STRICT FORMAT.
\nThis basically means, if you’re using unusual fonts and\/or formatting that is absolutely critical to the piece.)<\/p>\n
\nDISCLAIMER: We shall still reserve the right to reformat PDF submissions to fit our layout standards.
\nSubmitting as PDF is not an assurance that we will print the item as it looks in the PDF. Additionally, if we are forced to re-format from a PDF we will not be responsible for errors in the format conversion.<\/strong>
\nIf you have questions about this policy regarding your work, please contact us via email before submitting.<\/p>\n
\nyou withdraw it directly through Duosuma. Email is inadaquate for withdrawls for Duosuma submissions.
\nIf we accept a submission, it\u00a0will<\/strong>\u00a0be printed. Our timeline is so tight that there is no other option.<\/p>\nSubmission fee: $4.85<\/strong><\/h4>\n
