The authors are kindly asked to correctly format and submit their manuscripts, according to the formatting instructions. The manuscripts could be submitted online or by e-mail.
Description of the peer-review process
The peer-review process of the Journal "Annals of University of Oradea. Fascicle of Textiles, Leatherwork", is performed as single blind, system in which the names of the reviewers are unknown to the authors, but the names of the authors are known to reviewers and editors.
The peer review process is conducted into three steps:
1. The Editor-in-Chief or Executive Editor decides if each paper corresponds to the topics of the journal and if it fulfills the quality requirements in order to follow the review process. The rejected papers will be not further processed. The author of the manuscript receives, from the Journal’s Editor-in-Chief, a message that's highly briefly motivating what is/ are the argument/ arguments for the rejection of the manuscript at this stage.
2. The distribution of the manuscript for review, to two scientific reviewers, selected by the Journal’s Editor in chief and one of the Executive Editors, member of the Journal’s Editorial Board.
The reviewers submit their reports to the Journal’s Editor-in-Chief or Executive Editor with one of the following actions:
Reject: Content inappropriate to the journal or has little merit
Probable Reject: Basic flaws in content or presentation or very poorly written
Marginal Tend to Reject: Not as badly flawed; major effort necessary to make acceptable but content well-covered in literature already.
Marginal Tend to Accept: Content has merit, but accuracy, clarity, completeness, and/or writing should and could be improved in time
Clear Accept: Content, presentation, and writing meet professional norms; improvements may be advisable but acceptable as is
Must Accept: Candidate for outstanding paper. Suggested improvements still appropriate
3. After the submission of the reports from all the reviewers, the Editor-in-Chief can take one of the following decisions:
a. Publish without changes;
b. Publish after minor changes;
c. Review again after major changes;
d. Reject.
The peer- review process concludes at the time when the Journal’s Editor- in- Chief decides that the manuscript is accepted for publication and the statement of copyright transfer release has been received from the corresponding author.

GUIDELINES FOR POSTER PRESENTATION
The poster should be a visual presentation of your submitted abstract and should meet the following criteria:
SIZE: The poster must be no less than A1 and no larger than A0 size (A1 size 590 mm x 840 mm; A0 size is 840mm x 1190mm).
Orientation of your poster must be in Portrait style.
LETTERING: The poster should be easily readable at a distance of 2 meters. Use UPPER and lower case for general content as the use of all-capital text is difficult to read. Avoid using a mixture of type/font styles.
TITLE: The title should be the same as in the submitted full paper. Include the title of your presentation at the top of the poster. Characters should be a minimum of 48 point font size. Your name, University, Faculty, Department…should also be displayed on the poster.
HEADINGS: 48 to 60 point font size is recommended for headings.
CONTENT: 24 to 32 font size single spaced is recommended. The text should be concise and easy to read.
The message that your poster contains should be clear and understandable without the requirement of oral explanation. If relevant, methods should be presented simply and concisely. After the title, the two most important panels are the Introduction and the Conclusion. On the basis of these two panels, a reader will decide whether to consider the poster details and perhaps talk to the presenter. These panels need to be very simple, concise and visually attractive. Results should be presented graphically if possible. Avoid large tables of data. Results should be in line with those originally submitted in your Full paper.
Use pictures, symbols and color. Figure legends are essential and should be short but informative. If using graphs, they should have a short heading. For visual effect, we recommend that graphs be no smaller than 12cm x 18cm.
Photographs should be no smaller than 12cm x 18cm.
Use the space to attract your audience for discussion, not to present complex details of methods and results.
