Title exceeds journal's limit

Why it happens

The journal imposes a limit on the manuscript title length, and your title exceeds it.

To resolve

  1. Click Upload an updated manuscript to go back to the Upload Manuscript step, delete the main manuscript document(s), and upload a new version with a title that is inside the limit specified by the error message.
  2. Alternatively, click Let me reselect it to continue in the Title submission step and select a shorter segment of the title.
  3. If the warning message is displayed during initial submission and the Continue anyway option is available, you can click it to proceed to the next submission step without altering the title, but you will need to update the title to a shorter one during revision.
