2D Materials template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the 2D Materials format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the 2D Materials template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official IOP Publishing single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does 2D Materials use?
2D Materials uses Numbered (IOP) 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, and C. Lee, A representative article title, 2D Materials 12 (2023) 45–58.
Is the 2D Materials template one column or two?
2D Materials uses a single-column layout. DocuGuru reproduces that exact column layout, margins, and heading styles when it exports your PDF, so the output matches what IOP Publishing expects.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to 2D Materials?
No. DocuGuru generates the iopjournal LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a IOP Publishing-ready 2D Materials 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 2D Materials template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the 2D Materials format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is 2D Materials?
IOP Publishing journal. It is a physics journal, published by IOP Publishing.
Can I export a submission-ready 2D Materials PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official 2D Materials template (the iopjournal class, single-column) that is ready to submit to IOP Publishing, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
