The idea
Select a target journal from a database and Folio reformats your document to match its submission requirements — margins, font, citation style, abstract length, section structure, and any other journal-specific guidelines. Submit to a different journal? Select the new target and reformat in one click.
Why it matters
Reformatting a paper for a different journal is tedious, error-prone, and always urgent. You've just received a rejection and you need to resubmit elsewhere by next week. The content is ready — but the margins are wrong, the citation style needs to change, the abstract is 50 words over the limit, and the sections need reordering. It's exactly the kind of mechanical work that shouldn't require human attention. Every hour spent reformatting is an hour not spent on research.
Where we are
Big feature with real value. This is on the long-term roadmap. It requires building and maintaining a database of journal formatting requirements, which is a significant ongoing effort. But the payoff is clear — this would save researchers meaningful time on one of the most frustrating parts of the publication workflow.
