Herz template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Herz format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Herz template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Herz use?
Herz uses Numbered (Springer Basic) 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. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C (2023) A representative article title. Herz 12:45–58
