The Editors and Designers of the SIME journal will work together to provide the contributors and the readers with the information they need to submit or retrieve information in a manner that is easy to achieve.  We will use this page also to compile answers to the FAQ so that the staff are not occupied by answering questions that have already been answered.

Submissions & documents:

At this moment we do not accept hardcopy papers, all files must be emailed to the appropriate email address as an HTML document or as a MS word document.

Special fonts and symbols:

 Any of the standard systems of transliterations of foreign words are accepted as long as they are embedded as text characters within the documents. However, you may download the following font and keyboard template to be used with MS word documents.  Here is what you need to do in order to be able to type the macron or the dot under certain letters for instance:

1. download and install the font called al-Huroof

2. save the the Keyboard template on your c: drive

3. open MS word application, from the Tools menu, select Templates and Add-ins, check the box next to the line where it says ARABKEY2.DOT, then press ok.  Now change the font of the text you are going to be typing (or that you have typed already) to al-huroof font that you just installed, then while holding the alt key, type the letter "a" and that should type a with macron (ā)

Do the same to type any of the other common special characters that you need like.

I you can see the special characters below, you may be able to simple copy-and-paste them instead of downloading the new font; however this process may be more time-consuming.
