1. Title of the paragraph

The paper text should be written with Times New Roman of 9 points in size.

The length of the whole paper may not exceed 4 pages, that is the text of the paper should contain no more than 24 000 characters including spaces (18 000 characters for 3 pages). Each figure, table, equation accompanying the text makes the number of characters smaller. If there is any doubt connected with preparing the manuscript for publicationin PAK, the Editorial Office should be contacted by e-mail or telephone for clarification before sending the materials.

The paper elements (titles, abstracts, introduction, paragraphs, captions under figures and above tables, conclusions and references) should be written and arranged (alignment, indentions, spaces) as those presented in this exemplary text.Equations and figures should be centered and embedded in the text.Equations should be treated as a part of the sentence, for instance:

,(1)

where:

.(2)

The symbols used in equations should be of size corresponding to that of the paragraph font. The equations should be numbered consecutively in the whole text of the paper. The numbers of equations should be aligned right. Figures and tables must have clear-cut denotations that should be in accordance with those used in the equations and text of the paper (all variables should be written in italic type but all digits and constants in normal type). If the paper contains denotations and symbols written with other than standard fonts, these fonts (in TTF format) should be sent together with the paper file containing the complete manuscript.

Figures and tables together with captions should be embedded in the text appropriately, which means that they must appear as close as possible to the places in which they are referred to for the first time. In spite of this fact, the PAK Editorial Office reserves for themselves the right to rearrange them. Figures and photographs placed in the paper must have good contrast (resolution 300 DPI) and be readable. They should be in black-and-white or grayscale colour option. Additionally, all the figures and photographs should be attached as separate files (in one of the following graphic formats: TIF or BMP) to the materials sent to the PAK Editorial Office.

The figures should be numbered consecutively in the whole text of the paper. The figure captions should be both in English and Polish.

The tables should be numbered consecutively in the whole text of the paper. The table titles must be placed above the tables, e.g.:

Tab. 1.Table title in English (Times New Roman, 7 points)

Tab. 1.Table title in Polish

Due to the way of formatting the papers published in PAK, the dimensions of figures and tables cannot be larger than 8.5 cm in width and 21 cm in height. That is why the font size used in them can be decreased (7 … 9 points).
