Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Paper Lab.
What makes Paper Lab different from Overleaf or Word?
Paper Lab bridges the gap between visual WYSIWYG editing and complex LaTeX compilation. You get a rich live-preview editor, built-in vector diagramming tools, automatic citation management, and instant export to publication-ready PDFs without wrestling with manual formatting or environment setups.
Do I need to know LaTeX syntax to write papers?
Not at all. You can write your entire paper using our intuitive visual WYSIWYG editor. If you do need complex math or specific LaTeX commands, you can switch or inspect the code anytime using the built-in Monaco LaTeX editor.
How does the Global Citation Manager work?
Paper Lab lets you maintain a centralized reference library across all your projects. Simply import BibTeX files or search entries, and Paper Lab will automatically format citations in IEEE, APA, Nature, or custom style templates.
Can I draw and embed vector diagrams directly in my document?
Yes! Paper Lab includes a built-in diagramming engine. You can draw research-grade schematics and flowcharts, then insert them seamlessly as scalable SVG, PNG, or vector PDF figures into your paper.
Can I export raw LaTeX source files or final PDFs?
Yes. You can compile publication-ready PDFs with a single click or export complete LaTeX source zip packages ready for journal submissions (IEEE, Springer, Elsevier, Nature, etc.).
