Frequently Asked Questions

What is a graphical abstract?

A graphical abstract visually summarizes the key findings of a research paper using images, diagrams, and brief text. It aids comprehension and engagement and is increasingly required by scientific journals due to its effectiveness in presenting complex information in a clear and intuitive way.

How are graphical abstracts useful in academic communication?

Graphical abstracts increase the visibility of research, leading to up to three times more downloads and eight times more shares on digital platforms. They improve discoverability via image searches, attract a larger audience, and can boost citation rates and the overall impact of research.

Why does my journal request a graphical abstract?

Leading publishers like Elsevier, Springer, Nature, IOPscience, and ACS, along with high-impact journals, now require graphical abstracts. They help enhance the reach and impact of research articles, allowing readers to quickly understand the main points and improving the article’s visibility and citation potential in response to the growing trend of visual communication.

What if I’m not satisfied with the final design?

Edit Essence guarantees customer satisfaction by offering revisions until you are completely satisfied with the design. Our team works closely with you to incorporate your feedback and ensure the graphical abstract accurately reflects your ideas.

Will I own the copyright of the graphical abstract? Can I use it elsewhere, like on social media?

Once delivered, the copyright is fully transferred to you. If any copyrighted material is included, we will inform you. You are free to use the graphical abstract for any purpose, including posting it on social media, though we recommend retaining copyright where you share the content.

What are the key differences between graphical abstracts and infographics?

Graphical abstracts focus on summarizing the main findings of a research paper using minimal text and visuals, designed for academic journal submissions. Infographics, on the other hand, offer a broader story with more extensive text and visuals, typically used for educational and outreach purposes.
