Text files and printouts

Type your manuscript using the Word text processing application on aPC or Macintosh. If Word is not available to you, please contact thepublisher before entering your text. Send a printed copy and a text fileof your manuscript (on diskette, on CD-ROM, or as an e-mail attach-ment) to the publisher. The printout and file must agree exactly. In caseof discrepancies, the electronic file will take precedence over the print-out. Manuscripts submitted exclusively on paper, without text files, areno longer accepted. Save each chapter as a separate file and give thisfile an easy-to-understand name (such as intro.doc, 01-chapter.doc, 02-chapter.doc ...).

Text volume

The purchase price of a book is determined, to a large extent, by itsproduction cost, which in term depends on the number of pages andillustrations. For this reason, please make sure not to exceed theamount of text and the number of illustrations, tables, and referencesagreed upon with the publisher or editor. (Note that the illustrationsand tables are already included in the overall text volume.)

The publisher will communicate to you the number of characters thatwill correspond to one printed book page as applicable to your bookor contribution. You can use this figure to convert the amount of text inyour Word document to the number of pages it fills. To obtain the num-ber of characters in your text, use the Tools > Word count > Characters(with spaces) menu command in Word.

Orthographic and typographic conventions

In case of doubt, please contact your copyeditor for guidance. Caremust be taken to ensure that uncommon special characters and mathe-matical formulas are printed correctly on the accompanying manu-script printout. Special characters that your computer or printer cannotgenerate are best described and listed in a special table.

HeadlinesThe outline or hierarchy of headlines of your text should reflect the inter-nal logic of that text. Identify the requisite headline hierarchies by usingHeading 1, 2, 3 styles or a decimal classification (1.1, 1.2, 1.2.1, etc.).Avoid excessive nesting (long numbers representing too many differentlevels).

Formatting

Extensive formatting is not required. However, if you are interested andhave the necessary experience, you may request a document templatecontaining all the requisite styles (headings, callouts, references, etc.)from the publisher. Use no automatic end-of-line hyphenation featuresand insert no manual end-of-line hyphenation characters (softhyphens), no tabs, no soft returns (SHIFT + ENTER) and no manualpage breaks, as we have to remove all formatting of this nature in atedious manual procedure. Use end-of-paragraph marks (ENTER) onlyto separate one paragraph from the next. If you are not using Wordstyles, you may indicate specially formatted elements (such as Calloutor Case) in double parentheses:

((Start Caption))The multifactorial causes of primary and secondary dental caries are basically identical.((End Caption))

Structuring elements

Numerous elements are available for structuring and organizing textsthat you can use in your manuscript, depending on your agreementand on your concept. In doing so, you should pay particular attentionto the structural logic and didactic uniformity of the specific elements. Itis, however, usually best to use them with discretion. Boldface empha-sis can be used for particularly important terms and topics, but shouldnot occur more often than two or three times per manuscript page.Italics can be used for Latin terms such as the names of biological spe-cies or certain anatomical terms. However, it should be agreed at theoutset just how these italics are to be used, which will also depend onthe extent and subject matter of the publication. Beyond this use, italicsshould be used only for very special emphasis and for technical andother terms from other languages that have not been fully “natura-lized.” Bullets (o) are used for the first level in unnumbered lists, whileen-dashes (–) are used for the second level in unnumbered lists. Theautomatic numbering feature of Word should not be used, as the type-setting system does not recognize any bullets, numbers etc. created inthis manner and simply deletes them. Run-in titles are boldface wordsor terms used at the beginning of a paragraph, followed directly bybody text, 4

such as „Clinical parameter…” “Diagnostics,” “Case report,”etc.:Case report The maxillary lateral incisors were congenitallymissing in this 18-year-old female patient.

Illustrations

Illustrations must not be included with the text, but should be saved todifferent files, arranged by chapter (with filenames like 01-chapter-25-fig.doc). All illustrations must be numbered sequentially, chapter bychapter (see “Referring to figures and tables”). Each illustration shouldbe assigned a legend with the appropriate number. Legends should beplaced at the end of each chapter in sequential order. For importantinformation on the technical quality and format of illustrations submit-ted, please refer to Appendix 4.

Tables

Tables must not be included with the text. Create tables in Word usingthe Tables menu, in the form of simple gridline tables. Avoid extensiveformatting. To align text in columns and rows, use only tabs and neverspaces. Very complex tables may also be created in Excel. Tablesavailable to you only as printouts may be submitted as photocopies.Please check these carefully for accuracy before submitting. Tables inforeign languages must be translated. When using tables from othersources, please make sure to obtain written permission (see“Intellectual property and copyright”). Each table must be precededwith a legend. For more information on how to refer to a table, see“Referring to figures and tables.”

Referring to figures and tables

Each illustration and each table must be referred to in the appropriatetext passage. The illustrations or tables, which must be sequentiallynumbered, chapter by chapter, may be referred to in parentheses or inrunning text. Example: “In addition, cortical or corticospongious bonechips (Fig. 3-1) may be removed.” or “Figure 2-4 shows the differencefrom the previous situation.”

When referring to illustrations or tables that occur far before or afterthe current text, the reference to them should include the word “see”(see Table 5-5). Page number references and references to sections inother chapters should be blocked out (preferably by inserting �� fromInsert > Symbol > Wingdings) while the final pagination is unknown, forexample “(see also Chapter 24, Periodontitis, p. ��).” These blocked-out page numbers must later be replaced by the actual numbers in thegalley proofs.

ence

If an illustration or table is not referred to in the body text, the manu-script should contain a placement indicator in double parentheses atthe position in whose vicinity the table should be placed in the booklayout. Example: ((place illustration here: Fig. 1-24)).

Footnotes

Footnotes should be used sparingly. It will usually be possible to inclu-de its content either with the list of references (if the footnote is a ref-erence) or as a parenthetical remark in the body text itself. If footnotesare unavoidable, these should be saved in a separate file and num-bered appropriately. The automatic footnote feature of Word shouldnot be used, as the typesetting system does not recognize any footno-tes created in this manner.

Intellectual property and copyright

While authors are the intellectual property owners of their respectivecontributions or books, they usually cede the right of economic exploi-tation of the work (copyright) to the publisher as of the moment thebook is published. This is why you need written permission to repro-duce photographs, drawings, tables, (excerpts of) Internet pages, ormore extensive quotations from works published by other publishers inunchanged form (incidentally, this includes your own contributions orbooks published by other publishers!). Violation may result, in the worstcase, in a court injunction prohibiting the publication of the new work.

Unless otherwise explicitly agreed, reprinting permission is grantedonly for a specific work and for a single print run. In general, intellec-tual property right last until seventy years after an author’s death, whilecopyright lasts fifty years from the time a book is published. SeeAppendix 3 for a sample letter for obtaining reprinting permission inGerman and English. Appendix 2 contains extensive guidelines onreprinting permissions for text copy, illustrations, and tables. Please sub-mit the permissions obtained together with the respective illustrationsetc., but in any case no later than at the time of approving the copy-edited manuscript.

References and quotations

The list of references should not exceed 5–10% of the length of a bookor article. Include only current work wherever possible, and alwayscheck to see if an older source may not have become dispensable oreven obsolete. The list of references should either follow each chapteror be saved as a comprehensive list of references in a separate file(References.doc).

Sort all references in alphabetic order and number them consecu-tively. Do not name more than six authors per reference. As a rule, ref-6

Quintessence

erences are indicated in the text by adding the appropriate superscriptnumbers after the terminal punctuation. References citing the sameauthor but publications from different years must be ordered chrono-logically, starting with the oldest publication. Each reference to the lit-erature in the text must be included in full form in the list of references;conversely, each entry in the list of references should be referred to inthe text. The only exceptions are works cited under the heading of“Additional literature.” All direct quotation must be followed by an indi-cation of the source, including page numbers (Müller et al. 2003, p.231f); (see also “Intellectual property and copyright”). Quotations areformatted in Vancouver style. For more detailed instructions on quota-tions, see Appendix 5. Note that you need the publisher‘s permissionto reproduce extensive or comprehensive quotations in unchangedforms. Note the correct form of quotation and attribution as requestedby the respective publisher.

Drug and substance names

When writing your manuscript, please make sure that all facts in yourcopy (especially those related to medical drugs, dosages, and invasi-ve procedures) are current, correct, and free of errors. Chemical sub-stances should be referred to by their generic names in INN format.These names may be followed by the corresponding trade names inparentheses; these names must then be followed by ® to indicate a pro-duct name. If several alternatives are possible, please include “forexample” or “e.g.”. Example: “Fever can be treated with analgesicssuch as paracetamol (e.g. Tylenol®).”

Appendix 1:

“Extra tasks” for primary authors

and editors

Title, author's preface, list of authors, foreword

• When submitting the manuscript, include the most recent informationon the book’s title and subtitle and any additions to the title. Thepublisher will contact you in case a change is requested. The titlepage should list the first and last names of the author, academicdegrees and position, and the city.

• The author‘s preface should be a brief introduction to the book and tohow it came about. This is where you may differentiate your work fromthat of competitors (not to be mentioned by name!) and to includeacknowledgments. The author‘s preface should not exceed one pagein length.

• The list of authors must be complete and current: first and last names,full academic titles, addresses of clinics/institutions, home addresseswhere desired, phone and fax numbers, mobile phone numberswhere desired, and e-mail addresses - of all editors, authors, co-au-thors, and collaborators (each to be listed with their functions).

• It may often be desirable to include a foreword by an appropriateperson who is not an editor, author, or co-author of the work. In thiscase, we require the text (as a file and as a printout) and full detailson the author of the foreword (address, academic titles, etc.).

List of abbreviations/index

• If the work contains many specific abbreviations not readily found ingeneral reference works, you should include an alphabetical list ofabbreviations with short explanations (as a file and as a printout).

• The index must be created by the author once the final galleys withthe final pagination are available. Terms are underlined on the gal-leys, listed along with the page numbers, and sorted alphabetically.Index data are sent to the publisher (as a file and as a printout).

Photographs

Permission to reproduce must be obtained for all photographs fromother works. Exceptions are photos from books that are over fifty yearsold and whose intellectual property owners have been dead for atleast seventy years. For persons identifiable on photographs, you mustget their permission to reproduce (or the permission of a guardian inthe case of children). The depicted person's privacy rights must berespected. If permission is not given or if the person is not available, thephotograph cannot be used.

If permission of the person depicted is not granted, the person's facemust be made unrecognizable on the photograph (this will be done bythe publisher, e.g. by printing a black bar across the eyes; please indi-cate this when sending in the picture. Examples are images depictingthe face and eyes where these must be clearly visible for didactic pur-poses. It is especially in these cases that valid permission has beengranted covering the current project.

Drawings and graphs

Drawings published by other publishers that are to be reproducedunchanged always require reproduction permission by that particularpublisher.

As fees are often payable to other publishers for reproduction per-mission, often separately for each print run, the possibility shouldalways be considered of having the publisher redo the drawings fromscratch. An exception is suitable original art that is your property andthat has not previously been published.

If you need to modify or correct third-party drawings, please makethese corrections in a sketch or a copy, which can then serve as aguide for the artist. Mentioning the source in the figure legend (e.g.“according to Jones et al. 2005“) and including the full reference inthe list of references is common usage and good publishing style.

Tables and flow charts

Scientific and statistical results are not protected by copyright and cantherefore be reproduced. However, you should make sure to mention thesource, not least so that you are on the safe side legally with regard totheir contents. If a table is reproduced verbatim and it is not just a simplegrid (e.g. large multi-column tables, flow charts, algorithms, and the like),permission to reproduce must be obtained. It will often be appropriate tomodify the tables or to bring it up to date; in this case, mentioning thesource (“according to Jones et al. 2005”) will be sufficient, and permis-sion to reproduce will not need to be obtained.

Appendix 4a:

Processing illustrations

Illustrations include photographs, drawings/graphical representations,and diagrams. Artwork containing simple enumerations or tablesshould not be titled and numbered as illustrations, even if they areslides etc. from your lectures.

1. Artwork to be reproduced directly

The term “original artwork” refers to originals to be reproduced byconverting them into digital representations. Artwork can be slides,photographic prints (preferably glossy), x-rays, angiographies,CAT/MRT scans, sonographic images, video prints, original drawings,or graphs. Neither photocopies of photographs nor color negativesare suitable for reproduction.

The following guidelines apply to all originals to be reproduced directly:• Use only well-focused, high-contrast originals. Do not submit stained

or damaged artwork. Photographic slides (especially when framed inglass) should be packaged with particular care and protected againstpossible damage in transit.

• Submit only originals. If you need e.g. slides for your lectures, havethem duplicated before submitting.

• The colors on photographs to be reproduced in color must be correct.In those rare events where a stained original must be used, this shouldbe noted clearly in order for this stain to be compensated for in theinitial reproduction steps.

• When taking photographs of appliances, instruments, dentures etc.,make sure to use a uniform background. Prefer smooth foil or cardbo-ard to structured cloth. The background should contrast well with theobject depicted.

• For black-and-white graphs (e.g. bar graphs), patterns (hatch, cross-hatch, dots) are preferable to grayscales, which offer little contrastand often appear spotty when reproduced.

• The same is true for curves and lines in graphs: Different line styles(dashes, dots, etc.) are preferable to lines in different colors or shadesof gray.

• Do not use recycled paper. Pure white paper delivers better contrast.

Appendix 4b:

Processing illustrations

Legends on originals

• Number all illustrations consecutively. Add an arrow pointing towardthe top of the image. Use special water-resistant felt-tipped pens orlabels to letter slide frames or photographic prints.

• Do not write or draw arrows or reference lines directly on any illustra-tions. Use a copy or a transparency placed over the illustration. Thisgives the publisher the chance to use text styles, arrows etc. that areof good quality and uniform in size and style across the publication.

• For X-rays, sonographic images, etc., make sure to mark “top” and“right.” Data not required for the purpose on hand (e.g. irrelevanttechnical data), especially patient data, will be removed during thereproduction process. Indicate the affected areas on a copy of the ori-ginal.

• When submitting drawings or graphic illustrations, indicate the dele-tion of words or phrases (e.g. headlines) that should be a part of thefigure legends.

• Original illustrations should not be cropped. Indicate the desiredframe or section on a copy, in the margin, or on an overlay transpa-rency.

2. Electronic images

If you have electronic data for illustrations, these should be submittedon an electronic medium (CD, DVD, Zip disk). Paper printouts of all illu-strations must accompany the electronic data. *.tif(f) or *.eps are suit-able file formats.• When saving images, note that the resolution of photographs must not

be less than 300 dpi at publication size. This resolution and imagesize requires a setting of at least 1400/1010 pixels for digital came-ras. If – e.g. in the case of a screenshot – the highest possible resolu-tion is 72 dpi, the image must be 4.5 times the size of the printed size.

• Charts and graphs containing lines and printed text must be saved at800 dpi to avoid aliasing (serrated lines). The required resolutionmust be set during the scanning process. Changing the resolution ofan existing illustration by re-saving does not improve the printedimage. It is recommended to send a few samples to the publisher tocheck and see if the data can be processed at the level of qualityrequired.

• The recommended software for graphs (vector graphs) is Freehand orIllustrator. Changing formats and sizes does not affect the quality ofvector graphs.

Appendix 5:

Quoting references

Number your list of references, with references appearing in alphabet-ical order.Vancouver style is used for listing and structuring the individual refe-rences:• List all authors up to six. In the case of seven or more authors, list

only the first three and add “et al.”• Use standard sentence-style capitalization for English titles, including

book titles.• Abbreviate the names of journals according to the “List of Journals”

if listed in Index Medicus (www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/libprog.html), oruse abbreviations compatible with that list (e.g. Dtsch MedWochenschr for Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift).
