User Guide

From upload and target template setup to export, format your paper in minutes.

Getting Started

Step 1Upload Paper

Drag your paper file into the upload area, or click to select a file. Supports PDF and Word (.docx) formats.

Step 2AI Parsing

After upload, AutoSCI AI automatically parses the paper structure, identifying titles, abstracts, sections, figures, equations, and references.

Step 3Edit Online

Review and adjust parsing results in the structured editor. You can modify content, add information, and reorder sections.

Step 4Select Template & Export

Choose your target template in the export panel. If the target is not listed, import a new template first, then generate a formatted LaTeX, PDF, or Word file.

Conference / Journal Submission

When converting between conference or journal formats, AutoSCI handles the major differences automatically:

  • Layout adjustment: single or double column switching, margins, and font sizes
  • Citation conversion: IEEE numbered, APA author-year, Chicago, and more
  • Page limit check: automatic detection of page count compliance
  • Abstract word count: verification against target template limits

Thesis Formatting

Thesis formatting usually requires cover pages, abstracts, tables of contents, body text, references, and acknowledgements. AutoSCI helps with:

  • Automatic cover generation based on school-specific fields
  • Roman numeral and Arabic numeral page numbering rules
  • GB/T 7714 compliant references for Chinese university templates
  • Fonts and line spacing aligned with thesis requirements

Custom Template Import

If the template library does not yet include your target journal, conference, or school, import a custom template from the editor. This is useful for resubmissions, department-specific requirements, advisor-provided Word files, or official LaTeX style packages.

  • Supported sources: Word templates, LaTeX projects, .cls/.sty/.bst style files, ZIP packages, written format specs, and journal or school name lookup.
  • Confirmation flow: AutoSCI extracts layout, cover, section, citation, and export rules, then asks you to confirm fields and preview validation before saving.
  • Where it works: the generated template is saved to your account and can be used for template selection, diagnosis, PDF preview, and Word/LaTeX/PDF export.
