How to Use the ETRI Journal Template | A Step-by-Step Guide
Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 26 August, 2026
Submitting to ETRI Journal goes smoothly when your draft already matches the journal's own rules. Editors screen new manuscripts against the ETRI Journal guide for authors before peer review, so formatting, structure, and required statements should be right on the first draft rather than repaired during upload. This template sets that structure up for you.
What is the ETRI Journal Template?
It is a manuscript shell aligned to ETRI Journal. It covers front matter, the abstract the journal expects, a body organized to the journal's article types, and a reference list in the journal's required style. Confirm current scope and article types on the ETRI Journal page before you draft.
What's actually in an ETRI Journal submission:
Prepare the title, authors, affiliations, and ORCID iDs. Write the abstract to the journal's rule and word limit, organize the body to the article type, and apply the required reference style from the first citation. Complete every declaration (ethics, competing interests, funding, data availability) the ETRI Journal guide for authors lists, and cite figures and tables in order.
What separates a clean submission from one that gets kicked back:
The common failure modes are formatting or reference style that does not match the guide for authors, missing required statements, and an incomplete portal checklist. Clear all three against the ETRI Journal guide for authors before you submit.
What does this ETRI Journal Template include?
The shell mirrors what editorial staff check first: article-type fit, the abstract rules, required declarations, and the journal's reference style. For more detail see the author resources. When your draft is ready, upload it through the journal's submission system.

ETRI Journal Template Structure at a Glance
| Element | ETRI Journal requirement |
|---|---|
| Abstract | Provide an abstract of no more than 1200 characters (including spaces), containing the major keywords. It should succinctly state the focus of the article, how the research is conducted, the principal results, and the significance of the results, in the present tense rather than the past tense. The guide does not specify structured headings or a structured-versus-unstructured format |
| Main text | ETRI Journal accepts double-column FULL papers of between 8 and 10 pages only, using the ETRIJ LaTeX or MS Word format. The article length is limited to 8–10 pages in the journal's two-column format, excluding author biographies. Main-text-file order: (1) title, abstract, and key words; (2) main text; (3) references; (4) appendices, if relevant. The guide does not state an overall word limit |
| Declarations | Ethics approval/consent as applicable; competing interests; funding; data availability |
| Figures/tables | Publication-ready; cited in order |
| Supplemental | Upload separately when used |
| Keywords | Provide a minimum of five keywords and select one keyword that best describes the research area from the dropdown list in the manuscript submission system |
| References | Numbered references, arranged in order of citation in the text rather than alphabetically; each reference number must be enclosed in brackets |
| Peer review | Double-anonymous peer review (the guide also says the paper generally receives three reviewers, though one or two reviews may be sufficient) |
| Submission | authors.wiley.com/journal/ETR2 |
Quick Tips for Using the ETRI Journal Template
Read the ETRI Journal guide for authors once before drafting and once before upload. Draft the abstract after results are stable. Set the reference style before adding citations. Keep a cover letter that states your contribution and fit to ETRI Journal in under a page.
Best Practices
Skim two or three recent ETRI Journal papers to calibrate depth and figure style. Make the novelty clear in the first two pages. Deposit data and code when the policy on the ETRI Journal page requires it. Disclose any preprint or conference version with identifiers in the cover letter.
Before You Submit: Final Check
Do one focused pass against the ETRI Journal guide for authors: scope, length, reference style, required declarations, and figure quality. Then submit through the journal's submission system.
