Child Development template — frequently asked questions
How do I write a paper in the Child Development format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Child Development template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley single-column format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Child Development use?
Child Development uses Author–year (Chicago) 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, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023.

Child Development 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 Wiley expects.

No. DocuGuru generates the USG LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Wiley-ready Child Development document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
