P.S.: You may be interested in highlighting the subject of your
research paper in the front Cover Page of a MAT issue. If so, you
may email us your layout suggestions with a short narrative
description of the cover content and significance.

Instructions for compiling the cover artwork:

- The area that is used by the MAT cover is approximately 6.615
inches wide by 4.75 inches high. If you are submitting a
photograph, the best resolution would be at 300 dpi, which would
be an image of 1985 pixels by 1422 pixels. 

-If image is all-line art, then the dpi would best be at 600 dpi
which makes an image of 3970 X 2844 pixels.  If your image is a
vector image then you only need to worry about the dimensions as
a vector is printer-independent.

- CMYK is the best color mode. Images provided in RGB may be then
converted to CMYK for the printer. In such cases, however, the
printed blues or greens may not look as bright as the original
ones due to the color conversion process.

- Do not use obscure fonts.
