What is the manuscript?

Manuscript is a general term that refers to any work that is not officially printed or reproduced. In principle, manuscripts are always unpublished works. Latin manu scriptrus means written manually. Today, the manuscript usually applies to the author's originally produced work sent to the publisher. Some writers can still use typewriters or even write their works, but publishers usually have strict instructions for handwriting formats. Each publisher has its own instructions, but in today's publishing world, certain conventions need to be followed. For example, when sending a manuscript, for example, only a white book with a black ink is acceptable. Writers who are trying to excel with colored papers and inks usually consider their work unread and publishers do not prevent seriously.

All publishers want manuscripts that are easy to read. Scriptures that are easy in the eyes, as well as wide edges and double cosming are required when sending manuscripts. Editors and readThe Ři, who work in publishing houses, read many works, and of course consider their time and vision of valuable. It is important that the authors follow the exact requirements for formatting the manuscript of each publisher. The reason why publishers require double gaps is to have enough space to add notes and designs to authors.

Some publishers of books and magazines accept manuscripts sent on a computer disk, but many of them still not. Web publishers of online information usually receive online manuscripts and many of them have their own website management systems for writers to use directly. Such tools are usually advantageous for authors and are also more environmentally friendly because the use of paper is eliminated.

Between 500 - 1500 A.D., time known as the medieval period, manuscripts were usually written on vellum or parchment. Velllum and parchment are paper products traditionally producedNot from the skin and guts of animals such as calves, sheep and goats. Today, Vellum or Parchment is mostly created by processing wood fiber. However, manuscripts are now sent to publishers on cheaper and smoother paper. The paper is also made of wood and wooden pulp, but lacks a spotted texture of parchment or velum.
