| Sep 23, 2014 at 5:23 | comment | added | ff524 | This seems to be a question about preparing images for publication, which is firmly on topic. It asks for objective reasoning and information from other resources, not answerers' opinions. The OP is not asking for an exhaustive list of requirements of different fields, so it's not especially broad. The existing answers are concise, focused, and supported by objective reasoning. This seems like a fine question to me and I've voted to reopen. | |

Often you'll be plotting something that has no precise English description, so you have to use a symbol, even if you would otherwise have preferred to use words. | |

| Mar 20, 2014 at 14:31 | comment | added | Blink | My intention was to determine if there were any sources suggesting a specific format. Do you know of any books, or journals that explicitly address this? I have browsed many journal requirements, but haven't found any. | |
