How do I write a paper in the Engineering Research Express format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Engineering Research Express template.

Engineering Research Express uses Numbered (IOP) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text.
