# Tables & Figures (jf-tables-figures)
## When to trigger
- Tables/figures are drafted but notes, units, or formatting are inconsistent
- A reader cannot interpret an exhibit without hunting through the text
- You are aligning main-text exhibits with Internet Appendix exhibits
## JF norm: self-contained, accessible exhibits
JF is general-interest and prizes accessibility. Each exhibit must be **self-contained**: a reader from another subfield should understand it from its caption and notes alone. Because the manuscript faces a **60-page limit** (≥1.5 spacing, 12-pt font), keep only **decisive** exhibits in the body and send the rest to the **Internet Appendix** (bundled at the end of the same PDF, labeled `IA.*`, not counted against 60 pages; see `jf-internet-appendix`).
