Sunday, February 2, 2020 Illustrations<\/p>\n\n\n\n Definitions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Illustrations are images presented separately from the story, which are typically halftone: broken into equally spaced pixels or continuous-tone: paintings, photographs, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A line art is a drawing made of solid black on white background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A plate is a full-page of illustrations, typically printed on a separate, coated paper that can be collated into several such pages called galleries. One such gallery exists in the autobiography of Queen Noor of her memorabilia in the middle of the book. Note, galleries consist of four, eight, twelve or “a number divisible by four” pages, always beginning on a recto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Illustrations will be numbered (unless in a gallery) for ease of reference and should appear as close to the reference as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All artwork is submitted to the publisher in a separate file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Captions don’t include punctuation like a period if they’re incomplete sentence. But full sentences will take a closing punctuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For titles, a little refresher from chapter 9:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other formatting considerations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Charts<\/p>\n\n\n\n A chart is a line art and should be numbered and labeled as a figure consistently. Both axes are labeled. Their titles are capitalized sentence style, only first letter is capital. Other elements such as labels are lowercase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tables<\/p>\n\n\n\n We rely on Microsoft Word and Excel for table formats, but before you publish a book containing these, it’s nice to learn the rules followed by the tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A table contains complex data along rows and columns, and should be numbered separately from illustrations (table 1, table 2, etc.). Note lowercase t<\/strong>able.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Follow the following guidelines for tables:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Editing Tables<\/p>\n\n\n\n My Takeaway<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I reminded myself this may be helpful for my day job one day because in the fiction world my protagonist would have to possess scientific expertise to really force a table in. Nonetheless, my pride lies in my ability to complete the task. So signing off with a smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Four chapters remain. Next, it’s math time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\nSource: The Chicago Manual of Style<\/em>, SEVENTEEN EDITION.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sunday, February 2, 2020Blog #13 \u2013 learnings from #TheChicagoManualOfStyle.
