Adding article information

  • If you are coping the data from pdf file, note that the sentences will likely be disorganised. You can correct this by first copying from pdf file and pasting in a word processor, like MS Word or WordPad, to correct the sentences and make sure the sentences are not broken. Also make sure that words containing " 's " are corrected as the ' will alter and cannot be read in database. You may need to delete the ' copied from MS Word or PDF and re-type it from your keyboard. Similarly non-English alphabets (eg, those with double dots on top of the letter u) are wrongly display in sql databases and should be replaced with English characters
  • In the space to paste the abstract, use the Editor (like keyboard) to format the text after pasting or typing. Select all text pasted and justify. For "Format" in the Editor menu, select 'Normal (DIV)'; for "Font", select 'Verdana'; for "size", select '12'. Do to repeat font size.

  • If special characters do not display properly, you will need to use the html numbers for characters and symbols available at http://htmlarrows.com/symbols/ and http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm or elsewhere to replace the special characters in the text.
