How to set up your manuscript

Before EasySeer writes the manuscript you choose the IEEE mode (Journal or Conference) and the tone (Formal, or Plain and direct), and decide whether to include the IEEE LaTeX source, an AI-use statement and a cover letter draft.

The manuscript step takes about 15 minutes in the sample project and produces a DOCX and PDF. In the tool's built-in demo project the draft is 12,496 words with a section outline beside the text.

Steps

  1. 1

    Pick the IEEE mode

    Journal follows the IEEE Transactions template. Conference follows the IEEEtran conference layout.

  2. 2

    Pick the tone

    Formal, or Plain and direct.

  3. 3

    Choose what to include

    Switch on IEEE LaTeX source, the AI-use statement and the cover letter draft if you want them. Every claim is checked against your results, and any claim with no result behind it is listed in the completion report.

  4. 4

    Review the sources EasySeer will use

    context.docx, the generated code, your results and your baseline papers.

  5. 5

    Press Write manuscript

    Confirm in the dialog that your results are OK. Progress is shown while the draft is written, in about 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Read it with the outline

    Check the word, section, figure and table counts, then move through the draft with the outline. Verify every number and reference.

Tips

Turn the AI-use statement on if your journal or university asks for disclosure

Use the completion report to find claims without results

Common mistakes

  • Submitting the draft without verifying references
  • Leaving the tone or citation style at the default when the journal needs another

Questions

Which files do I get?

A Word manuscript, and the IEEE LaTeX source if you chose it. The compiled IEEE PDF is made in the Delivery step.

What does the claim check do?

It checks every claim against your results and lists the ones with no result behind them in manuscript/completion_report.md.
