1) Tables and figures should efficiently present information and enhance the understandability of data.
2) Tables are numerical values or text displayed in rows and columns. Figures are any type of visual
presentation such as charts, graphs, drafts, drawings, and photographs. If needed for efficient delivery of
information, multiple figures can be arranged within one table.
2. Guidelines for Table and Figure
1) All content including the title are written in English.
2) The title of the Table is located above the table and the title of the figure is placed under the figure.
3) Figures should be large enough to read easily and convey only essential information. Ensure that figures
are simple, clear and consistent in presentation. Use figures for any type of illustration other than a table
(chart, graph, photograph, or drawing) to complement the information in text or to simplify text.
4) For copyrighted materials being reused or edited, the source of the material should be reported. Follow
the Regulation for Reference List Preparation of RJCC.
5) The details of all notes and abbreviations are placed below a table or above a figure caption.
6) The presentation format of figures in an article should be consistent.
7) Tables and figures are placed in text close to where they are mentioned.
8) It is recommended to complete table and figure, referring to example of table and figure provided by the
