GeoHazards template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the GeoHazards format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the GeoHazards template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does GeoHazards use?
GeoHazards uses Numbered (MDPI) 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, GeoHazards 12 (2023) 45–58.
Is the GeoHazards template one column or two?
GeoHazards 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 MDPI expects.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to GeoHazards?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready GeoHazards 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 GeoHazards template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the GeoHazards format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
