Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.

Author Guidelines
MANUSKRIPTA invites scholars, experts, and students working in manuscripts studies to submit articles on their fields. Articles should be original, research-based, unpublished and not under review for possible publication in other journals. All submitted articles are subject to review.
Articles may be written in English or Bahasa between approximately 7.000-10.000 words. All submission must include 100-150 words abstract and 5-7 keywords. Quotations, passages, and words in local or foreign languages should be translated into English.
MANUSKRIPTA accepts only electronic submissions. Please register yourself on this website before submitting your article.
All notes must appear in the text as citations. A citation usually requires only the last name of the author(s), year of publication, and (sometimes) page numbers. For example: (Teeuw, 1967: 45; Fathurahman: 2012). Explanatory footnotes may be included but should not be used for simple citations. All works cited must appear in the reference list at the end of the article. In matter of bibliographical style, MANUSKRIPTA follows the American Political Science Association (APSA) manual style. Therefore, MANUSKRIPTA recommends you to use reference database software such as Mendeley, Zotero, RefWorks, or Microsoft Word.
The romanization should be written in accordance with the romanization system in the Library of Congress (LOC). Click herefor more information about it.
