Individual skill

isr-tables-figures

Use when designing the exhibits for an Information Systems Research (ISR) manuscript — correlation/measurement tables, estimation results, model/equilibrium figures, design-science evaluation tables, and the split between main text and the electronic companion under ISR's 32-page text / 38-page total cap. Finalizes exhibits; it does not run the analysis (isr-data-analysis) or polish prose (isr-writing-style).

# Tables, Figures & the Electronic Companion (isr-tables-figures)

## When to trigger

- The main text is over the page budget and you must decide what moves to the companion
- Exhibits are cluttered, not self-contained, or off INFORMS house style
- You have proofs, lemmas, or full measurement items competing for space in the body
- A reviewer says "Table X is unreadable" or "the model is hard to follow"

## Budget exhibits against ISR's hard page cap

ISR caps manuscripts at **32 pages of text** and **no more than 38 pages including all material** (references, appendixes, tables, figures). This discipline is tighter than many peer journals, so exhibits must earn their place. Treat the **electronic companion / online appendix** (published if accepted) as the home for everything that supports but does not carry the argument: full proofs and lemmas, complete measurement items and scale sources, additional robustness, and large auxiliary tables. Keep in the body only the exhibits a reader needs to follow the core claim.
