Cochrane Style Manual
General guidelines for figures and tables

Each figure and table must have a caption providing a brief description (or explanation) of the figure and must be referred to in the review text (via a link in RevMan Web).

To ensure the best presentation of published reviews (particularly in the PDF version), Cochrane Reviews should include a maximum of six figures, but ideally between three and five. Only the most important tables should remain as 'Additional tables' and other additional tables should be moved to the Appendices and referenced with a hyperlink.

Further guidelines about figures and tables are available via support for user of RevMan Web.
