Submit a PDF

For unpublished work or sources ICSAC cannot resolve via DOI. Provide the manuscript metadata; ICSAC reviews the PDF directly. Text-layer PDFs only — image-only scans cannot be reviewed.

← back to submission options

PDF submissions are for unpublished work only.

If your manuscript already has a DOI — Zenodo, arXiv, OSF, Crossref, anywhere — use the DOI route instead. ICSAC mints a new Zenodo DOI for accepted PDF submissions; submitting work that already exists under another DOI creates duplicate records that fragment citations and confuse archival integrity.

If your manuscript is currently under review at another journal, do not submit it here. Most journals treat any prior open deposit as prior publication and will withdraw your submission. Wait for the journal’s decision first.

ORCID iD (verified)

Set from your ORCID sign-in. To submit under a different ORCID, sign out and sign back in with that account.

List every author of the manuscript in order. Row 1 pre-populates from the submitter info above; edit it if the submitter is a corresponding author rather than the first author. Affiliation is optional but encouraged.
