1. The submission stage Quadrature publishes manuscripts in French but may publish some papers in English.
Hard copy submissions (on double printing) should be addressed directly to: 2. The acceptance stage Once accepted by the editor who received the manuscript, the Editorial Office will send an acceptance letter to the corresponding author, and at the same time, will ask for a hard copy version of the paper in its accepted form. In order to accelerate the publishing process, the authors are encouraged to send all pieces of the manuscript available in electronic form (TeX, LaTeX, EPS) to the production department. If authors cannot provide an electronic file of their text, they must advise the production department as soon as they receive the acceptance letter, to avoid any delay in the beginning of the production process.Text LaTeX2e files (standard article style) would be appreciated but Plain Tex files or LaTeX209 files are accepted.Files typeset using Word, RTF, plain ASCII (text-only) are also accepted. Figures Each figure should be cited in the text. Good-quality figures have the following characteristics:
3. The galley proof correction stage Corrections of the galley proofs by the authors should be unambiguous and made on the proofs using a red pen. The TeX and LaTeX files possibly sent by the authors at the acceptance stage, might be modified by the production department to follow general presentation rules of the journal. So the main purpose of proof reading is to correct errors that may have occurred during the production process but is not to modify the content of the paper. The reproduction of artwork, the layout of the pages and equation breakings introduced by the production staff should carefully be checked. Corrections that might lead to a change in the page layout should be avoided. The galley proofs, once corrected, should be signed and returned to the publisher within 3 days after reception.
