Something is wrong with my Authors

The author names in your manuscript have not been correctly selected.

Why it happens

Author Portal is unable to correctly parse your main manuscript document, either due to special formatting in the document such as word art, or for some other reason.

To resolve

  1. Click Option 1: Edit and re-upload Main Document > Back to Upload Manuscript.
    You will be redirected to the Upload Manuscript submission step, where you can delete your main manuscript document and upload a new one.
  2. Alternatively, click Option 2: Provide Authors manually in a later step > Provide Authors later.
    You will be redirected to the next submission step, Affiliations. You can enter the author names in a later step, Author Details.
  3. Or, if you want to try again to select the author names from your manuscript, click Nevermind, I'll select the Authors from my Manuscript.
    You will be redirected to the Authors submission step.
