Submitting your manuscript on disk: a steep learning curve for authors and editors.
Many nursing journals are switching to state-of-the-art manuscript production systems. Most of these new systems include computerized typesetting, so some journals are requesting disk submission of manuscripts. However, computer disk submission is not without difficulties. Editors and authors alike are experiencing a fairly steep learning curve before developing a system where the author's disk can work in the publisher's production system. This article describes how authors and editors can collaborate on the disk submission system for nursing publications.
