PUBFINE

We use Open Journal Systems (OJS), developed by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP). OJS is open-source software designed to facilitate the management and publication of academic journals online, allowing for an efficient editorial process from article submission to publication.

OJS (Open Journal Systems) is an open-source software used to manage and publish academic journals online. OJS helps in organizing the submission, review, editing, and publication processes of articles.

To submit an article through OJS, you must first register as a user on the journal’s website that uses OJS. After that, you can log in, select the “Submit Article” option, and follow the specified steps, such as filling in the article metadata, uploading the article file, and completing any additional required information.

Before submitting your article, make sure you have prepared:

• The manuscript according to the journal’s submission guidelines.
• The article metadata, including the title, abstract, keywords, and author information.
• Supporting files such as tables, figures, and additional data if required.
• A cover letter if requested by the journal.

After submitting the article, the editor will conduct an initial assessment to ensure the article fits the journal’s focus and scope. If it passes the initial assessment, the article will be sent to reviewers for peer review. Reviewers will provide feedback, and the editor will decide whether the article is accepted, rejected, or needs revisions.

The time required for the review process can vary depending on the journal, the number of articles being processed, and the reviewers’ response time. Generally, the review process takes between a few weeks to a few months.

If your article requires revisions, you need to amend the article according to the reviewers’ and editor’s feedback. Once the revisions are completed, the revised article can be resubmitted through OJS for re-evaluation. Be sure to provide a clear response to each of the reviewers’ comments.

After the review process is complete and your article is accepted, you will receive a notification from the editor via OJS. This notification usually also includes information on the next steps, such as final editing and preparation for publication.

Once your article is accepted, it will go through the final editing process, which may involve editing for grammar, formatting, and layout. After that, the article will be prepared for publication and published in the appropriate journal issue.

You can track the status of your submitted article by logging into your OJS account and checking the dashboard or author area. There, you will see the status of your article, from initial assessment, review process, revisions, to publication.

The book publishing process at Pubfine begins with the submission of the manuscript by the author. After the manuscript is received, an editor will conduct an initial assessment. If the manuscript meets our criteria, it will proceed to the review stage. After the review, the manuscript will go through editing, design, and finally be printed and published.

Before submitting your manuscript, make sure you have prepared:

• A complete manuscript that has been thoroughly edited.
• A synopsis or summary of the book.
• An author biography and, if needed, an author photo.
• A table of contents and a preview of the first chapter (if requested).
• A cover letter explaining the book’s purpose and target audience.

You can submit your manuscript via email or through the online submission portal available on the Pubfine website. Be sure to follow the submission guidelines provided, including the manuscript format and required information.

The time required to review a manuscript varies depending on the number of submissions and the complexity of your manuscript. Typically, the review process takes between 4 to 8 weeks. We will contact you once the review is complete.

If your manuscript is accepted, you will receive an official acceptance letter from Pubfine. Your manuscript will then enter the editing stage, where an editor will work with you to ensure the manuscript is ready for publication. After that, the manuscript will go through design and production before being published.

It depends on the publishing model used. Some publishers may require a contribution towards costs for services such as editing or marketing, while others may offer publishing at no cost to the author. These details will be discussed further after your manuscript is accepted.

Yes, authors are entitled to royalties based on book sales. The royalty percentage and payment terms will be detailed in the publishing contract you will sign after your manuscript is accepted for publication.

After publication, your book will be promoted through various channels, including the Pubfine website, social media, and our book distribution network. We also work with bookstores and online platforms to ensure your book is widely available.
