What problem does it solve? Writing journal papers, conference submissions, or thesis chapters in Word requires precise formatting—APA/Chicago/IEEE/MLA citation styles, numbered equations, auto-numbered figures and tables, hanging-indent bibliographies, and multi-column layouts—that is tedious and error-prone to produce manually or through generic document generators. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Citation Style Recipes: Implements APA 7, Chicago 17 (Notes-Bibliography), IEEE, and MLA 9 conventions, including in-text citation shapes, reference-list ordering, and hanging-indent bibliography entries. - Equations and Cross-References: Builds OMML inline and display equations from LaTeX-like formulas, tab-stop equation numbering, and live SEQ/PAGEREF fields for auto-numbered figures, tables, and page cross-references. - Journal Layouts: Produces abstract/keywords/affiliation first-page blocks, IEEE two-column body sections, footnotes/endnotes, and venue-specific heading conventions. - Use Case: A researcher needs an IEEE conference paper: the skill generates a two-column .docx with a single-column abstract, Roman-numeral ALL-CAPS section headings, bracketed numbered citations, and SEQ-numbered figures with captions below each image. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to create an APA-style research paper named paper.docx with a title, abstract, keywords, double-spaced body sections, and a hanging-indent reference list using the officecli academic paper skill.
