Arthroplasty template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Arthroplasty format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Arthroplasty template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official BMC (BioMed Central) single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Arthroplasty use?
Arthroplasty uses Numbered (Vancouver) 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. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title. Arthroplasty. 2023;12(3):45–58.
Is the Arthroplasty template one column or two?
Arthroplasty uses a single-column layout. DocuGuru reproduces that exact column layout, margins, and heading styles when it exports your PDF, so the output matches what BMC (BioMed Central) expects.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Arthroplasty?
No. DocuGuru generates the bmcart LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a BMC (BioMed Central)-ready Arthroplasty 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 Arthroplasty template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Arthroplasty format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Arthroplasty?
BMC / BioMed Central journal. It is a life sciences and medicine journal, published by BMC (BioMed Central).
Can I export a submission-ready Arthroplasty PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Arthroplasty template (the bmcart class, single-column) that is ready to submit to BMC (BioMed Central), together with the matching LaTeX source files.
