Communications Engineering template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Communications Engineering format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Communications Engineering template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature two-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Communications Engineering use?
Communications Engineering uses Superscript numbered (Nature) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Communications Engineering 12, 45–58 (2023).
