Manuscripts should be organized in the following order: abstract in Portuguese, abstract in English, the full text, acknowledgements, references and captions of tables and figures. All tables and figures should be included at the end of the text. Pages should be numbered consecutively. When including the author's name in full, type the given name(s) first followed by the surname(s), which must be in upper case. The approximate position of figures and tables should be indicated in the text. All titles and subtitles should be numbered in the following way:

1st level 1.1
2nd level 1.1.1

The abstract in Portuguese and the abstract in English should be at least 25 lines long and should be followed by 4 or 6 keywords.
Text and tables should be created in Word for Windows, Times New Roman or Arial, font size 12, in A4 size. All tables should be self-explanatory and numbered consecutively.
