Figures Formatting
Our experts specialize in designing high-quality scientific and academic figures tailored to the standards of prestigious journals. With extensive experience in academic publishing, our professional illustrators ensure your figures are formatted to effectively showcase your data and enhance the understanding of your research findings.
Our Figure Formatting service generates publication-ready figures that conform to your chosen journal’s specifications based on your images, graphs, and diagrams. This includes changes to file type, resolution, color space, font, scale, line weights, and layout (to improve readability and professional appearance). After your figures have been formatted, you can ask an unlimited number of questions about the work we have completed.
How to get the best results from Figure Services?- Provide the highest-resolution images available. Original image files may include .tif, .jpg, or .png formats. These files should never be embedded in Word or PowerPoint documents, as that will reduce their quality.
- Specify the journal to which you intend to submit. Our experts will use that journal’s specific guidelines to format your figures to their exact requirements.
- Plan your figures to fit onto one physical page of a print journal. If you include too many elements in a single figure, your order may be delayed while we ask you to decide how to divide it into two or more figures, and additional costs may accrue.
- Make sure to allow enough time for formatting. Figure Formatting takes 6 business days for 1-4 figures, and the turnaround time increases with additional figures.
- Please upload only the figures you intend us to format. For example, if you include 4 figures but order formatting for 3 items, your order may be delayed while we clarify which items you wish to have formatted. Alternatively, please leave us a note letting us know which figures to format.
