Will your figure pass your journal’s desk review?

Upload your figure, pick your target journal, and check it against that journal’s real figure requirements — before an editor does. Free, no login, never stored.

Measured in your browser request and never stored.

Single column ≈ 89mm · double ≈ 183mm

We never AI-redraw a data figure — that would be fabrication.

Your figure vs. Cell

Example

❌LIKELY DESK REJECT

  • ResolutionFAIL

    Effective 150 DPI at 85mm — below the ≥300 DPI this journal requires.

    PaperFig’s enhancer re-renders a clean version — it fixes blur/mess, not resolution. The output has a resolution ceiling and may not reach 600 DPI at full width. Always proofread every label before submission.

  • Label legibilityFAIL

    Several labels fall below the 6pt minimum at final print size.

  • Color modeWARN

    Journal requires CMYK; your file is RGB.

    PaperFig can’t export CMYK yet — join the waitlist and we’ll email you when it ships. For now, convert in Photoshop / GIMP with a CMYK profile.
