All our readers and authors enjoy the benefits of free, open access. We believe that open access to the journal promotes accessibility and uptake worldwide, serving the best interests of the professional and scientific community and the public at large. Since no fees are charged for access, STT Simpson offsets the publication expenses—including those of management, journal production, and online hosting and archiving—by charging Article Processing Charges (APC), also known as page fees, to authors, institutions, or funders for each article published.
The Article Processing Charge (APC) for this journal is Rp1,150,000 per article in PDF format. The average length of articles in this journal is 5000–8000 words per article. This APC is valid for the current calendar year and is subject to change at any time at the publisher's discretion. The submitting author is responsible for paying the APC and must confirm, at the time of submission, that he/she will arrange payment of the APC if the article is accepted for publication. This responsibility cannot be delegated to any third party unless agreed to by the publisher.
