PRX Life template — frequently asked questions
How do I write a paper in the PRX Life format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the PRX Life template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official American Physical Society two-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does PRX Life use?
PRX Life uses Numbered (APS) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, PRX Life 12, 45 (2023).
Is the PRX Life template one column or two?
PRX Life uses a two-column layout. DocuGuru reproduces that exact column layout, margins, and heading styles when it exports your PDF, so the output matches what American Physical Society expects.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to PRX Life?
No. DocuGuru generates the revtex4-2 LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a American Physical Society-ready PRX Life document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the PRX Life template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the PRX Life format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
