From apjl@helios.harvard.edu Wed Jun 2 15:38:02 1999 Date: Wed, 2 Jun 1999 11:49:02 -0400 (EDT) From: Ap J Letters To: mrnolta@Princeton.EDU Subject: ApJ Letters paper E99-5315, torbet.0430 June 2, 1999 Dear Dr. Nolta We estimate that the length of your paper 'A MEASUREMENT OF THE ANGULAR POWER SPECTRUM OF THE MICROWAVE BACKGROUND MADE FROM THE HIGH CHILEAN ANDES' is 4.09 journal pages. Papers longer than 4 journal pages cannot be accepted. You should wait until after you have received the referee's report before preparing a shorter version. The estimate was obtained as follows: Number of spaces per line: A = 91 Number of lines per page: B = 25 Number of pages of main text: C = 7.15 (Here, the main text does not include the heading section, i.e., the title, authors, addresses, subject headings, and footnotes, and does not include the references, figures with captions, and tables. The main text does include all blank spaces between sections, and all equations.) (A x B x C) / 7686 = 2.05 the number of journal pages needed for the main text. (7686 is the product of 61 spaces per line x 63 lines per page x 2 columns.) To this is added the estimated number of journal pages for: The heading section 0.40 References 0.20 Figures with captions 0.45 (see details below) Tables 0.95 (see details below) Extra space for equations 0.00 (the number of equations x 0.03, when the double-spaced typescript does not have an extra double space before and after each equation; the number of equations is multiplied by 0.06 when lengthy equations force the Letter to be set in a single column format) TOTAL 4.09 Please note that the width of a figure normally should not be greater than its height if the figure is to appear in an 8.8 cm column of the Journal, and it must be legible when reduced to this size. Detailed Figure and Table estimates: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 Figure: 0.25 0.20 0.00 0.00 0.00 Table: 0.10 0.85 0.00 0.00 0.00 _______________________________________ The Following Are Needed When You Send A Revised Version of Your Manuscript: __Specify which institution(s) will be responsible for page charges. __Add or modify subject headings, inserted after the abstract; headings must conform to the enclosed list. __Specify individual object(s). __Add complete addresses in the heading section, or in footnotes, including the e-mail addresses. __The manuscript should be double spaced and printed on only one side of each page. __References should appear in the standard ApJ form. __Tables, figure captions, and figures, in this order, should follow the text and references. __Please remove ___ from the title.
