Online submission system provider Aries Systems has announced that Editorial Manager, Version 14.1, now in Beta release, includes an updated Author Submission Interface capable of extracting key metadata from Authors' submitted Microsoft Word documents so as to automatically populate key system fields. The new interface simplifies submission by reducing the amount of time that authors spend re-keying submission data, and will lead to more accurate submission metadata for publishers.
The updated Author Submission Interface rolls out in response to feedback from customers, including a requirement for XML as early as possible in the workflow. Through the updated interface, the fields extractable from Author submitted Word files include: title, co-authors & affiliations, and abstract.
Editorial Manager is projected to be a submission and peer review system, and is in use by thousands of scholarly journals globally. New versions roll out twice a year.
