The production of SAAS volumes is intended to be a “throughput” process and is dependent on the existence of a completed electronic manuscript by the author. It is expected that authors will provide both electronic and hardcopy versions of the manuscript (thoroughly proofread and corrected), which the Project will use to generate a publishable file. The author’s formatting and layout will be utilized as far as possible, but the Project reserves the right to change either or both as necessary. Photographic materials or line drawings for plates or illustrations may be included with manuscripts and will either be electronically scanned or photographically reproduced for publication. Special characters used by authors can be represented by any unique character string that can be converted globally. The author will be expected to provide a list of the characters needed and the strings used to represent them in the manuscript. This procedure is designed allow quick publication of manuscripts at a moderate price.
