Manuscript Template

Every manuscript submitted to Jurnal Penelitian Saintek (JPS) must use the official template. The template fixes the structure, heading levels, and formatting that the editors check at initial screening, and it carries guidance for each section. A manuscript in a different template is returned to the author before review.

Choose the template for your type of manuscript. For each type there are two files.

Original Research Article

② Title page with author details
Author names, affiliations, ORCID iDs, biographies, and the end-matter statements. Upload it as a Supplementary File.

Systematic Literature Review

① Anonymised manuscript
The file reviewers see. Upload it as the Article Text, with all identifying details removed.
⬇ Download (.docx)
② Title page with author details
Author details and end-matter statements. Upload it as a Supplementary File.
⬇ Download (.docx)

All files are Microsoft Word documents. A submission is complete only when both files for the chosen type have been uploaded.

✎ How to Use the Template

  • Write over the guidance. Text in boxes is guidance for authors. Read it, follow it, and delete every box before submitting.
  • Replace the placeholders. Text in [square brackets] is a placeholder: replace it with your own content and remove any highlight.
  • Keep the built-in styles. Use the template's heading and body styles. Do not change fonts, margins, or spacing by hand.
  • Keep the section order. The order in the template is the order required for that manuscript type.
  • Use the equation editor for equations, and SI units throughout.
  • Complete the end matter. Where a statement does not apply, write “None” instead of deleting it.
