I have just submitted an article to an Elsevier journal. They have some non-functional web interface so that you can edit the article yourself. My biggest problem was fixing the tables, because they looked really bad after the automated copy editing. There was some text on the interface which said something like "This will not be the final version of the tables", or at least that's how I understood it. Well, I clicked submit and without any real editing from a human on their side the article was published. Now my article, which I have put so much effort in, has messed up tables.
- whatshisface 7y agoWho cares, everyone interested will just read your pre-print. :)
- _emacsomancer_ 7y agoRight. The reviewers who did the peer review were unpaid; readers will read the pre-print. What value does the publisher add?
- pks016 7y agoSame with me. We had submitted good quality graphs according to the requirements. When it got published the graphs got compressed and look worse now. Funny thing is: one of the graph was not high quality(done in Word), that one looks much better.
