A Hand Book of Outline of Plastic Surgery Exit Examination

If I send you a synopsis of my book, will you consider publishing it?

Any material (images, tables, quotes) that you have not created specifically for book may be copyrighted. In the first instance, you should ask the publisher for permission to reproduce the material and follow their instructions.

For more detailed information on this, see our permissions guidelines.
 

If I redraw an image, will I still need permission?

Yes, you should check whether the publisher permits you to do so. In the caption of the reproduced image, the correct recognition must also be provided. If the redrawn image is significantly different from the original, only an authorization may be required, but you should consult with the copyright holder.

Do I need permission to reuse my own image that has already been published?

It depends on the publisher's policy. In general, copyright belongs to the publisher, so you need to verify that permission is required.

What should I do when the publisher demands payment for the use of the material?

The payment of permissions is the responsibility of the author as stated in the agreement. You may use the following terms to ask the copyright owner to waive the fee, but we do not assume any responsibility if the fee remains to be paid.

Does each chapter author have to sign a copyright and permission form?

The author only needs to sign the form as long as all figures are covered in the chapter.

Do I need to submit a form if my chapter does not have an image or table?

Yes, you still need to verify that the text of your work is not copied directly from another source.

If I informed the editorial assistant by email, do I need to submit a form?

Yes, we need an official declaration from you.
 

What happens if I don't meet the deadline?

The date we agree with you is used by our sales and marketing teams to help plan their promotional strategies and by our production teams to help plan their resources. Therefore, it is important to meet as far as possible your original agreed deadline.

If you have any problems, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can discuss the new schedule of the book.

How do I submit the manuscript and to whom do I send it?

You will need to submit the manuscript to us via the dropbox system. If you do not have an author link, contact the editor of the book or the book team at books@rfppl.co.in.

How can I check if I'm providing all the information you need?

We have a checklist for submission of manuscripts, which you should complete and provide with your completed manuscript.

Will I receive proofs?

This depends on the type of book and its contribution. The conference proceedings are presented to us in a copy prepared for the camera, so proofs are not necessary. For more information, see the relevant section "Preparation and submission of manuscripts".

Please note that the proofing stage is for the correction of typographical errors and we cannot accept unnecessary and costly changes.

When do you need the proofs back?

The authors of the chapter usually have a week to check their evidence before returning the correction. The author of the book will have two weeks to verify the proof.
 

Where will the book be marketed?

Your book is distributed globally to the appropriate audience through catalogues, email campaigns and conferences. We ask you to provide information about potential promotional opportunities such as related organizations and forthcoming conferences to help us maximize the marketing of your book.
 

Will my book be available as an eBook?

Most of our books are available as eBooks (digital versions), via our own publishing platforms or through one of our partners.
 

How do I cite my book?

If you want to cite your book, we recommend including the DOI of your book in our eBook collection. Each chapter also has a DOI, which is found at the top of the chapter's website.

If your book is not included in the eBook collection, please refer to it in the usual way, for example:

Behavior Leading To Violence in Beyond Medicine: A to E for Medical Professionals, 1st. Kalidas Chavan, Red Flower Publications, Delhi, 2021, p. 45-71.
 

When will I receive royalty payments?

The annual royalty payments for sales from the previous year are made at the end of March. Any payments will be made by bank transfer directly to your bank account. If you are not sure what royalties you are due, the percentage of the royalties is given in your Memorandum of agreement or your Letter of agreement.
 

How do I claim my author/editor/referee discount?

Authors, publishers and reviewers have the right to receive a 25% discount on book orders and a 35% discount on books to which they have contributed.
