Mechatronics template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Mechatronics format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Mechatronics 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 Mechatronics use?
Mechatronics uses Numbered (Elsevier) 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, C. Lee, A representative article title, Mechatronics 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Mechatronics?
No. DocuGuru generates the elsarticle LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Elsevier-ready Mechatronics 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 Mechatronics template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Mechatronics format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
Who publishes Mechatronics?
Mechatronics is a multidisciplinary journal published by Elsevier. DocuGuru's Mechatronics template matches Elsevier's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Mechatronics PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Mechatronics template (the elsarticle class) that is ready to submit to Elsevier, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Mechatronics template cost?
You can start writing in the Mechatronics template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Mechatronics PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
