How do tables, figures and references count towards the word count? How is the word count of my manuscript determined?
To find the total word count in a Microsoft Word document, first take out the list of contributors and references, and then use the word count feature in Microsoft Word (under ‘Tools’). References and tables are not counted when determining your word count; however, our editors will edit the figure legends when included with your manuscript. We will edit your entire document (except references and tables) unless you give us special instructions stating otherwise. The word count will be verified by the assigned editor and you will be contacted if there is a discrepancy which changes the price (increase or decrease).
