Important: Each author may only submit one individual work to REVLES per year. Additionally, those who publish an individual work may participate in a collective work within the same issue of the journal.
Accessibility of manuscripts in Spanish
The following guidelines must be followed:
Write in clear and simple language.
Provide a textual expansion of an abbreviation or acronym the first time it appears in the document.
Do not use serif fonts.
Provide sufficient contrast between background and foreground color combinations of text and text images.
Do not base information solely on color. Ensure that all information available in color is also available if color is not available.
Avoid the use of bold and italics.
Justified alignment.
Specify the language of the document and mark the language change in all texts where it occurs.
If mathematical symbols must be included, do so using the formula editor.
Accessibility of Signed Manuscripts
All personal and/or specific signs must be presented using the fingerprint alphabet the first time they are mentioned.
Position the camera so that it captures the entire signing space and avoids any part of the sign language being cut off.
Good lighting is recommended for the person signing, avoiding shadows on the face and background.
Wear plain, single-color clothing, avoiding accessories as much as possible.
The background should be plain and uniform, offering good contrast with skin tone and not shiny. A blue or dark background is recommended.
Sign at a moderate pace to ensure comprehension. Avoid signing too quickly, as it can be difficult to follow.
Considerations when writing written content
Using styles for headings and paragraphs:
Visual elements such as colors, sizes, fonts, or spacing should never be applied directly to the text. Instead, use structural elements and apply styles.
Modify the visual appearance of existing headings to maintain the structure of the document (Normal, Heading 1, Heading 2, Subheading, etc.).
Two elements with the same appearance should have the same style.
Maintain consistency in the structure of the information; this can be verified with a "browser map."
Heading styles should not be used to highlight content.
Lists:
Establish nesting instead of simulating it with tabs, spaces, hyphens, etc.
Alternative text:
Provide alternative text for images and all non-text elements; it can be included in comments.
Tables:
Do not simulate tables with tabs or spaces.
Mark only the first row and/or column as headings.
Do not use heading markup solely for styling purposes.
For complex tables, if possible, restructure them into simple tables.
Text in columns:
Do not simulate text in columns with text boxes, tables, or tabs.
Links:
Clearly specify the destination of links inserted as hyperlinks in the document.
Text should be meaningful in itself and identify its destination outside of its context.
