The reviewers comment, and the editor accepts or rejects your article (or requests revisions).
IF YOUR ARTICLE IS AT THIS STAGE, ANY QUERIES SHOULD BE SENT TO THE JOURNAL EDITOR
Your article comes to us by email from the editor, via CATS (our production tracking system), or directly from ScholarOne Manuscripts.
Your article is logged on CATS, then sent on to a copy-editor (for most journals). You will receive an acknowledgement from us at this stage, giving you the name of the production editor.
You will be offered the chance to order reprints of your article.
The production editor sends your copy-edited article to the typesetter.

You will receive an email when your proofs are ready, giving you instructions for accessing your proofs.
You return your corrections to the production editor (or editor if arranged).
The production editor makes any necessary corrections and sends the article to the typesetter for correction.
The typesetter sends revised proofs, if needed, to the production editor. The production editor checks that all the corrections have been made.
The production editor instructs the typesetter to send the final print and online files.
The production editor checks the online files.
Copies of the journal are despatched to society members and subscribers. Reprints and issues are posted to authors if ordered.
Submitting a revised manuscript through ScholarOne Manuscripts
Revise your manuscript, addressing the reviewers' comments. These changes should be highlighted in the manuscript by using track changes in MS Word or by using bold or colored text.
Outline these changes in text, so that you can submit them to the journal along with your revised manuscript.
Please note that if the journal is double-blind, your revised manuscript should be double-blind as well.
Once you have revised your manuscript, you can submit your revision from your Author Centre. Please do not start a new submission. Locate your original manuscript in your Author Dashboard, and click on "Create a revision":
If your revision deadline has expired, please contact the editorial office of the journal for further assistance.
You will need to "view and respond to the decision letter" on your manuscript when you submit a revision:
Enter your response to the reviewer(s)' comments into the text box:
If the journal allows you to upload this as a Word document as part of your PDF proof, please indicate this in the "response to decision letter textbox." You will then be able to upload them in the “file upload” stage.
Delete your original files, and upload the new revised files at the "file upload" stage:
If you have submitted your revised manuscript correctly, it will have the same manuscript ID number as your original manuscript, with .R1 appended to it: TANDF-2010-0014.R1
