介绍

For students writing papers, Author delivers quick and easy citations, automatic formatting on export (available as an In-App-Upgrade) as well as the best environment for thinking freely, making notes and brainstorming ideas. It’s a hassle-free, minimalist writing space for students which teachers appreciate for the quality of citations, formatting and outline structure. 

Fast Citing

• Copy a DOI and paste it to get a full citation to quickly cite academic papers
• Quickly cite books, websites, youtube videos and academic documents

Academic Export (In-App-Upgrade)

• Automatic Table of Contents
• Automatic References/Bibliography
• Automatic formatting of citations 
• Numbered Headings
• Page Numbers
Please note that the export labels (‘References’ etc.) are not localised so therefore will always be in English. We hope to change this reasonably soon.

Advanced Views 

• Dynamic View: Think freely without being constrained by the traditional columns of text. Mind map, concept map and jot down thoughts, right inside Author
• Magic Margins: In full screen the margins behave like the Dynamic View where you an add notes.
• Instant Outline: Pinch on your trackpad to fold the text to see just the headings. Pinch further in or out to see more or less headings
• Advanced Find: If you only want to see sentences with a specific keyword, select the keyword cmd-f to hide all the sentences which do not have the keyword will be hidden. Click on a sentence to jump to it, cmd-f again or ESC to return to the regular view

Cuttings

• Everything you Cut (but not Copied) is remembered by Author. CMD-shift-v to see what you have Cut and choose what to paste

Modern & Minimalist

• Reduces eye strain and supports native macOS Dark Mode
• ESC to go into and out of full screen. It seems like a detail but is very helpful when going between focused writing and interacting with many documents

An Augmented Text Tool

• Integrated wit Liquid (free text tool): Provides hundreds of commands in less than one second on any selected text.
• Integrated with Reader (free PDF reader): Provides instant citations through simply copying and pasting text using the Visual-Meta method as described at https://visual-meta.info
