How do I write a paper in the Acta Virologica format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Acta Virologica template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Frontiers single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Acta Virologica use?
Acta Virologica uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text.
