Images and Tables
Images and tables should be numbered and titled appropriately within the text.
Images should be high-resolution (minimum 300 dpi).
Tables should be prepared using only three basic lines:
- Strikethrough: The top line that begins the table.
- Underline: Located immediately below the column headings and separates the headings from the table content.
- Underline: The bottom line that ends the table.
Additional lines should not be used within or between row and column cells.
This arrangement ensures that tables are simpler, more readable, and meet academic standards.
