Questions about rejected article

My article was rejected because I did not use Times New Roman font. The instructions say to go to "My Content" after I fix it to resubmit it by clicking "Update". There is no area that says update. Can someone help me?

You need to go to the "My Content" area, click on that article, and make the changes. You will need to remove the current document, change it to Times New Roman font, save the new article in Word or whatever program you use, and then upload the new article. Then...you will need to change the font of the text in the submission boxes. I would simply erase what is there, copy and paste the new article in there. For the short summary, you might want to copy and paste it into Word, change the font, then copy and paste back into the submission box. Actually...the steps about the submission box may not be necessary...I just always do them to make sure. Once you have done all that, check to make sure the new file shows as being attached (I once ended up submitting without an attached file). Finally, hit "Save" or "update" or whatever it says at the bottom.
The editing feature for revisions is actually new. We used to have to completely do everything over and resubmit. I haven't had a revision yet with the new system, but I assume it is similar to the process for editing an existing article.
