How do I write a paper in the Geochronology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Geochronology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Copernicus Publications single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Geochronology use?
Geochronology uses Author–year (Copernicus) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C.
