Scales in line drawings must be mounted parallel to either the top or side of the figures. In planning illustrations, authors should keep the size of the printed page in mind, making due allowance for the figure legend. The figures must be identified on the reverse side with the author's name, the figure number, and the orientation of the figure (top and bottom). The preferred location of the figures should be indicated on the margin of the manuscript. Illustrations in color may be published at the author's expense. The legends for several figures may be typed on the same page. Sufficient details should be given in the legend to make it intelligible without reference to the text.
