This page lists publication costs in a table.
And at the bottom of the page, is the 'View Proof' section. Before you can submit your manuscript, you must view the manuscript created from your uploaded files. This file will be sent to peer reviewers, so please make sure that all figures and tables are present, in the correct order, and of sufficient quality for peer review. Sometimes, the pdf conversion process changes font type, font size, or text placement in a figure, so always inspect figures closely.
If you opt to view your manuscript as a pdf file by pressing the 'View PDF Proof' button, ICB will create a pdf file of your manuscript. This process can take longer if your manuscript contains large figures.
The pdf file will open in a new window. The draft pdf shows the uploaded manuscript in the form in which it will be sent out for peer review.
You can download this pdf by clicking on the download icon near the top right of the window.
