Figure Processing / Case study
Rescuing 14 Complex Figures for STM Journal Submission
Client: Medical Research Institute
The challenge
The journal editor rejected the authors' initial manuscript submission because the figures were pixelated 72 DPI screenshots with tiny, unreadable fonts and mismatched colors.
What we built
We extracted the underlying data curves, redrew all 14 figures from scratch as clean vector art in Adobe Illustrator, standardized the font sizes, and converted all palettes to true CMYK print standards.
The result
The paper was accepted immediately upon re-submission with zero artwork comments from reviewers. The research team now uses our figure prepress service for all major submissions.
