G. The Review tab: Preparing the review version

It's now time to prepare the manuscript for peer review and assign one or more reviewers.

  1. The editor should again look at the file that was provided by the author to make sure that no information is included in the file that would compromise blind review.
  2. If needed, download the file and remove any compromising information (such as a cover page with the author's name on it), then upload the revised Review version.
  3. You'll also want to review the supplementary files. You can choose which of these files will be presented to reviewers. Be sure to click the Record button to save any changes made to supplementary file permissions.
  4. Once everything is ready for review, click Select Reviewer to assign the first reviewer.
