Canonical requirements

Publishing Standards

Professional Guidelines explain how authors prepare and respond. Master Policies define Treata’s canonical publisher-level requirements.

Journal-specific instructions take precedence for local configuration.

Article types, word limits, file requirements, reference style, peer-review model, fees and other journal-level settings should always be checked on the target journal’s own Author Guidelines page.
