7. Can I submit movies and large figure files with my manuscript?


Yes. Given that the full text of each research article is published online rather than in print, we are able to consider large figure files (color or otherwise) and movies (or other interactive material) with your manuscript. There is no additional charge for these files.

See our formatting figure guidelines.
