Publication of your CIF

You should always attempt to resolve as many as possible of the alerts in all categories. Often the minor alerts point to easily fixed oversights, errors and omissions in your CIF or refinement strategy, so attention to these fine details can be worthwhile. In order to resolve some of the more serious problems it may be necessary to carry out additional measurements or structure refinements. However, the nature of your study may justify the reported deviations from the submission requirements of the journal and these should be commented upon in the discussion or experimental section of a paper - after all, they might represent an interesting feature.

If level A alerts remain, which you believe to be justified deviations, and you intend to submit this CIF for publication in Acta Crystallographica Section C, you should additionally insert an explanation in your CIF using the Validation Reply Form (VRF) below. Your explanation will be assessed by a Validation Co-editor who will decide whether your paper is suitable for publication in its present form.

You are also encouraged to complete a VRF for submissions to Acta Crystallographica Section E. The VRF will be considered as part of the review process. In addition, the VRF responses are included in the checkCIF/PLATON report which is available online for all papers published in Section E

If you intend to submit to another section of Acta Crystallographica or Journal of Applied Crystallography or Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, you should make sure that at least a basic structural check is run on the final version of your CIF prior to submission.

If you wish to submit your CIF for publication in Acta Crystallographica Section C or E, you should upload your CIF via the web. If your CIF is to form part of a submission to another IUCr journal, you will be asked, either during electronic submission or by the Co-editor handling your paper, to upload your CIF via our web site.
