Accessibility Guidelines for Manuscripts

Please prepare your manuscript so that as many readers as possible can use it, including people who use screen readers.

  • Structure: use the heading styles of your word processor for titles and sections (not just bold text). Keep a logical order.
  • Images: describe each figure and chart in the text and in its caption. Do not put essential text inside an image.
  • Tables: build them as real tables with a header row, not as pictures or tabbed text. Avoid merged cells.
  • Colour: do not rely on colour alone to show meaning; use patterns, labels or different line styles, and ensure strong contrast.
  • Links: use descriptive link text (the title of the source), not “click here”.
  • Language: write clearly, explain abbreviations at first use, and set the document language correctly.
  • Lists and formulas: use list styles; write equations with the equation editor and not as images.
  • Video and audio: supply captions or a transcript.

The journal publishes articles as PDF with full metadata; accessibility of the published files is improved over time. If you have trouble reading an article, write to info@reandpub.uz.
