What is journal submission and publication support?
Journal publication support is an end-to-end service that manages a manuscript from preparation to acceptance. It typically includes journal selection, formatting to author guidelines, a cover letter, preparation of declarations and supplementary files, submission on the journal’s online system, tracking of the manuscript’s status, and help with revisions and resubmission. Frontier Publishers assigns one publication expert who handles each step for you.
Service overview
Journal submission systems are time-consuming and every journal asks for something different: title pages, declarations, author contributions, highlights, keywords and supplementary files in specific formats. Mistakes here cause technical rejection or weeks of delay.
Our publication support takes that work off your hands. We prepare every file, write a compelling cover letter, complete the submission on your behalf, keep you updated on its status and manage resubmission to the same journal after revision.

Yes. With your authorisation, we complete the submission on the journal’s online system and send you the confirmation.
The submission service covers resubmitting the revised manuscript to the journal. Drafting point-by-point responses to reviewer comments is a separate service, and can be added to any pack.
No legitimate service can guarantee acceptance, because editorial decisions belong to the journal. We maximise your chances by making sure the manuscript is suitable, compliant and well presented.
