Formatting the text

The text of your paper should be formatted as follows:

- 10-point Times, Times Roman or Times New Roman.

- The text should be set to single line spacing.

- Paragraphs should be justified.

- The first paragraph after a section or subsection should not be indented; subsequent paragraphs should be indented by 5 mm.

The use of sections to divide the text of the paper is optional and left as a decision for the author. Where the author wishes to divide the paper into sections the formatting shown in Table 2 should be used.

Table 2. Formatting sections, subsections and subsubsections.

	Font	Spacing	numbering
Section	12-point Arial bold	6 mm before 3 mm after	1, 2, 3, etc.
subsection	10-point Arial bold	6 mm before 3 mm after	1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc.
subsubsection	10-point Arial Italic	6 mm before 3 mm after	1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3, etc.

Figures and tables

Figures and tables, as originals of good quality and well contrasted, are to be in their final form, ready for reproduction, pasted in the appropriate place in the text. Try to ensure that the size of the text in your figures is approximately the same size as the main text (10 point). Try to ensure that lines are no thinner than 0.25 point.

Captions/numbering

Captions should be typed in 9-point Times. They should be centred above the tables and flush left beneath the figures.

Positioning

Place the figure as close as possible after the point where it is first referenced in the text. If there is a large number of figures and tables, it might be necessary to place some before their text citation.
