Assessing Writing template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Assessing Writing format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Assessing Writing template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Elsevier format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Assessing Writing use?
Assessing Writing uses Numbered (Elsevier) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text.

Lee, A representative article title, Assessing Writing 12 (2023) 45–58.
