Templates give a new document a ready-made structure, so you can start with the right sections and formatting instead of a blank page. Every template produces an ordinary document; you can change anything after it is created.
Start from a template
In Documents, select New Document. The button opens a list of templates; pick one and the new document opens in the editor with that structure already in place.
Available templates
- Blank document: an empty page, no preset structure.
- Journal article: a manuscript layout for journal submission.
- News article: structured writing blocks for announcements and news posts.
- Conference: abstract and full-paper templates for your conferences.
- Academic CV: a curriculum vitae layout.
- Letter: formal correspondence, such as a cover letter.
Journal manuscript templates
Choosing Journal article opens a Choose journal template step, where you pick the manuscript format of an active Scholardemia journal. The resulting document follows that journal’s expected layout, which makes the eventual submission smoother; see Submit an article to a journal.
Conference templates
Choosing Conference opens a Choose conference template step. Select an abstract or full-paper template from a conference you organise or attend, then create the document with that conference’s required structure.
