D. Sizing of Graphics
Most charts, graphs, and tables are one column wide (3.5
inches / 88 mm / 21 picas) or page wide (7.16 inches / 181
millimeters / 43 picas). The maximum depth a graphic can be
is 8.5 inches (216 millimeters / 54 picas). When choosing the
depth of a graphic, please allow space for a caption. Figures
can be sized between column and page widths if the author
chooses, however, it is recommended that figures not be sized
less than column width unless when necessary.
The final printed size of author photographs is exactly
1 in wide by 1.25 in tall (25.4 mm x 31.75 mm / 6 picas x 7.5
