PSN template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the PSN format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the PSN 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 PSN use?
PSN 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. PSN 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to PSN?
No. DocuGuru generates the sn-jnl LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Springer Nature-ready PSN 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 PSN template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the PSN format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
Who publishes PSN?
PSN is a multidisciplinary journal published by Springer Nature. DocuGuru's PSN template matches Springer Nature's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready PSN PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official PSN template (the sn-jnl class) that is ready to submit to Springer Nature, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the PSN template cost?
