The Gerontologist Template

In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the The Gerontologist template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Oxford University Press single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.

The Gerontologist uses Author–year (OUP) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', The Gerontologist, 12(3), pp. 45–58.

The Gerontologist 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 Oxford University Press expects.

No. DocuGuru generates the oup-authoring-template LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Oxford University Press-ready The Gerontologist document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
