Science Communication template — frequently asked questions
How do I write a paper in the Science Communication format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Science Communication template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official SAGE single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Science Communication use?
Science Communication uses Author–year (Harvard) 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', Science Communication, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
