One form at the simplest, a multi volume book project at the furthest
One submission form. A few required files, a couple of rules.
A form per article type, with conditional steps, and file designations that decide what a reviewer will see.
Multi author books and multi volume encyclopedias, where every chapter is a unit that gets reviewed on its own.
Ready to run, and yours to adjust
Fields and order
Any field, in any order, with your own help text, different per submission type
Required files
Your own file designations, and which of them are hidden from reviewers automatically
Validation
What blocks a submission outright, and what only warns
Guidelines
Your text, on the step where it is needed rather than in a PDF nobody opens
Save and resume
On by default. An author can leave and come back as often as they need.
The reviewer's view
The author checks the exact PDF a reviewer will see, in a required step before submitting
Down to the detail
We know the smaller details are often what make a good product great, so they are written down rather than left for a call.
