AMS Author Upload
AMS requirements for peer-review submission
Items that must be in place before a submitted manuscript package can begin the peer-review process:
- Properly signed copyright forms from all authors (submitted individually or together). Faxed or scanned signatures are acceptable.
- Length of no more than 7500 words (approximately 26 double-spaced pages, counting abstract through appendixes, but not list of figure captions or references). The author is required to request Chief Editor approval and provide justification to obtain an exception to the length limit via a cover letter uploaded (but not rendered) into the submission package.
- Double-spaced text [3 typed lines per inch (2.5 cm) measured anywhere on the page, counting abstract through appendixes].
- Type that is 12-point font or larger.
- Figures (with captions below each figure for the review process) and captioned tables placed at the end of the manuscript, rather than embedded in the text.
- The following elements in the proper order: title page, abstract, body text, appendixes (if any), references. Figures and tables should appear after the references section. Some manuscript types, such as Comments and Replies, may not require an abstract. Please number all pages sequentially.
Additional items that must be in place before a manuscript can be accepted for publication:
- References and citations in proper AMS format.
- Separate double-spaced figure caption list provided.
- Abstract, Introduction (or paper body), and figure caption list begin on new pages.
- Double-spaced abstract, main text, appendixes, references, figure caption list, and table text and captions.
- Tables set one per page.
- Manuscript source files must be uploaded.
