c) the author's bio in English (up to 100 words, Times New Roman, 10 points, 1.5 spacing).

5. Illustrations should be delivered in separate files with the given name and positioned in the text; photographs saved in *.tif, *.jpg, *.psd files with a resolution of no less than 300 dpi at the required reproduction size; drawings saved in *.cdr or contrasted; diagrams in Corel Draw or Microsoft Excel; each illustration, diagram, drawing, photograph or reproduction should be signed and numbered; only materials to which the author of the text holds copyrights or which are in the public domain will be accepted.
6. If a text contains uncommon fonts (e.g. Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew) which are not a part of the standard version of the text editor or Windows environment, the appropriate font files should be included.
7. The author is obliged to make the corrections recommended by the reviewers and to proofread the text by the deadline agreed upon with the Editor. He does not receive remuneration for this. Failure to send the article after review within the deadline will result in its postponement to the next issue of the journal or its rejection.
8. After composition, the article is forwarded to the author for proofreading. The correction should be prepared electronically on the errata sheet. No extensions will be made to article texts at the proofreading stage. Only corrections to existing text may be made. Failure to send in a text after proofreading will be interpreted as the author's consent to its publication in its current form.
9. Until a text appears in an electronic version, a copy of submitted materials shall be stored by the author.
