Authors’ names in small capitals or, if necessary, in lower case, never in capital letters;

If there are two authors, separate the names with a comma;

  • use APh abbreviations for journal titles.

Standards for illustrations

The importance of the illustration in the researcher’s purpose should be stressed. It participates in a way that is completely complementary to the written discourse. Authors must take as much care and thought in its formatting as in the elaboration of the text.

Since the "page mirror" is 190 × 250 mm, normal or Italian full-page figures should not exceed these dimensions. Figures on a column shall be 91 mm wide and not more than 250 mm high. It is therefore necessary in the design of the figures to take account of these justifications and to provide for possible reductions.

Illustrations shall be in vector format (.eps, .ai...) and are subject to standardisation or retouching (e.g. maps and drawings). Non-vectorial illustrations will be in Tiff or PSD format. JPEG is to be avoided. The resolution for these grayscale or colour images (photographs) must be greater than or equal to 300 dpi. The resolution for plans and line drawings must be 1 200 dpi in bitmap mode.

The line drawing

Ceramic designs, whether vector or raster images, should conform to established standards, with the common reduction being 1/3, except for large sizes at 1/4 or 1/5 (possibly 1/10 for whole amphorae) and 1/1 for stamps and small inscriptions. Drawings of metal, glass, wood or bone objects will also comply with the standards in force, with reductions recommended according to the nature and size of the objects, of the order of 1/3 or 1/2, 1/1 being suitable only for very small objects and details. The figure shows the numbering of the drawings in continuous Arabic numerals and a scale. The author must also ensure the homogeneity of the presentation of all the plates.

Plans and sections must have a precise metric scale and an orientation (North). The plates must fit within the justifications previously underlined.

Drawings made with vectorial drawing software shall have line thicknesses preferably greater than or equal to 0.25 mm, without exceeding 1 mm, except in exceptional cases. The grey scales used should be between 15 % and 60 % in increments of ten, avoiding overloading which would be detrimental to the proper understanding of the document. Special fonts used as symbols should preferably be vectorized so that they cannot be modified. It is also advisable to avoid the proliferation of layers. It is also recommended to use a standard font (Myriad Pro, for example), min. 6 pt, max. 10 pt. For Greek fonts, for example, vectorization is preferable.

In any case, the legends of the drawings must be provided separately.

Photographs

These illustrations are intended for essential views that do not duplicate a drawing. These documents, if not scanned, must be provided on glossy paper preferably, laser or inkjet prints will not be accepted. It is preferable to provide the publishing unit with original black and white prints. However, colour prints are accepted as well as slides (24 × 36 to 6 × 7 cm) of good quality (sound, free of microscratches, clean), which are preferable to a hard copy. Do not send negatives (unless prior agreement has been reached).

Digital photographs (.tif) must have a resolution higher than 300 dpi in the final format, any lower resolution determining a proportional reduction. The author will take care of the good balance of the image by avoiding too strong contrasts of light and overexposures. Once processed, the images will not be compressed (no .jpg).

Tables

The curves, histograms and tables will be treated like all graphical documentation. They may be provided in a word, excel, or vector format. Each entity will be contained in a dedicated file. The author will make sure that his illustration will remain readable once reduced to the collection format and passed in grayscale. The recommended font is Myriad Pro, min. 6 pt, max. 10 pt.
