Turn a paper's key findings into a graphical abstract

Transform a paper's key findings into a graphical abstract. This run creates one visual preview. Data calculations, precise typesetting, vectors, and production files still require verification in the appropriate tools.

No full prompt needed—add a description when the selected option requires it.

Where to use it
Journal submission, academic communication

This run creates one visual preview. Data calculations, precise typesetting, vectors, and production files still require verification in the appropriate tools.

What you need

Journal visual specifications or research representation assetsOptional · 0 or more images
Graphical language and typographical constraints are provided and do not replace research results.

When to provide it: When there are target journal specifications or the schematic diagram has been reviewed

Research questions, methods, results and conclusionsRequired · 1 item
Provide logic, variables, direction, strength of results, and conclusion boundaries confirmed by the author.
Target journal and graphical abstract requirementsRequired when applicable · 1 set
Provide the current issue's placement, reading direction and text restrictions.

When to provide it: When there is a target journal

Provide every required input. Add optional inputs only when useful, and mark conditional inputs as applicable only when they apply to this request.

How to use this workflow

  1. Open the generation form

    Select “Use this workflow” to see the required inputs. You’ll need to sign in before generating.

  2. Add the required inputs

    Prepare: Optional journal visual specifications or research schematic assets (0 to multiple images) + required research questions, methods, results and conclusions (one set) + conditional target journal and graphical abstract requirements (1 set). Complete every required field, add optional inputs only when useful, and mark each conditional input as applicable or not applicable.

  3. Review text and output settings

    Check “Target journal and graphical abstract requirements” for accuracy, then choose the aspect ratio, resolution, and quality that fit this use case. The generation form shows the available options.

  4. Generate and review

    Select “Generate image,” then review the result and open the full-size image. Check it against the detailed requirements below. This run creates one visual preview. Data calculations, precise typesetting, vectors, and production files still require verification in the appropriate tools.

Do I need to write a prompt?

No full prompt needed—add a description when the selected option requires it.

When there is a target journal, complete “Target journal and graphical abstract requirements”. “Research questions, methods, results and conclusions” can be entered as exact text or data, or supplied as images. The checklist below shows which fields are required. You do not need to write generation instructions. Use the form fields to provide the images, exact copy, data, or description requested by this workflow.

Detailed result requirements

Required inputs

Optional journal visual specifications or research schematic assets (0 to multiple images) + required research questions, methods, results and conclusions (one set) + conditional target journal and graphical abstract requirements (1 set)

Input quality

No universal public standard is available. Check the requirements of the platform or service you will use.

Composition

No universal public standard is available. Check the requirements of the platform or service you will use.

Output aspect ratio

Set the output canvas from the selected platform placement or production template, not from a reference image. Choose the option that matches this request: Elsevier-style graphical abstract — 5:2 (recommended). Choose the target aspect ratio before generation; do not default to 1:1. Use a custom ratio only when the actual placement or production template requires it. Confirm the target journal first. An Elsevier-style graphical abstract may use approximately 5:2 when appropriate, but the specific journal template takes priority. Create one aspect-ratio-specific deliverable per request; generate each additional placement as a separate output. Recompose for the selected ratio while preserving the complete subject, all text, and every required safe area. Never stretch the subject or treat cropping important content as adaptation.
