BMC Medical Education template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the BMC Medical Education format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the BMC Medical Education 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 BMC Medical Education use?
BMC Medical Education uses Numbered (Vancouver) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text.
