Submission Formats
Return Postage must accompany all submissions if they are to be returned.

Taqasim is printed in black & white format so please make sure that any images you supply are not very dark or contain a lot of red/pink tones as these do not reproduce well in grey scale, but you can send us a colour image and we will adjust it. If you send us a colour image it will appear in colour in the electronic version of the magazine.

Please remember that in order to do your accompanying images or advertisements justice they should be submitted in a high resolution format - at least 300dpi.

Where possible submissions should be submitted in electronic form using one
of the following formats: MSWord, MSWorks, MS Publisher, Rich Text Files,
Adobe Reader (PDF), OpenOffice.

You can use floppy disk or CD (PC only not MAC) or submit by
email to submissions@taqasim.org.uk

Posted hard-copy submissions are also acceptable if you cannot use one of
the above formats, but please send them typed as we cannot accept hand-written copy.

Postal Submissions should be mailed to:

Taqasim Magazine, P.O. Box 72, Bideford, Devon, EX39 1FA

Please include an s.a.e. if you wish us to return your copy.
