Review and export

This section covers the last stretch of writing: checking your draft, getting feedback, and getting the paper out of Papero in the format you hand in. It also covers bringing a Word document in, and going back to an earlier version.

In this section

1. Review checks: the six checks in the Review panel, what Review my draft recommends, and how to check one section.
2. The Citation report: check whether the papers you cite support your sentences, and open the passages the report read in your PDFs.
3. AI use statement: insert a short paragraph that says how you used AI, then fill it in.
4. Export to Word: layouts, title page, page numbers, blind-review copies and live Zotero citations.
5. Export to LaTeX and Overleaf: download a LaTeX project or open it in Overleaf.
6. Import a Word document: bring a .docx into Papero as a new document.
7. Version history: save, preview, restore and delete versions of a document.
8. Share and comment: share a document by link, collect comments and manage them.

Before you hand in

1. In the Review panel, press Review my draft. It recommends the check to run first, and More checks holds all six. See Review checks.
2. On Plus, run the Citation report to see whether your sources back what you wrote.
3. Save a version before you apply big changes.
4. Share the draft with your supervisor for comments, if you want feedback.
5. Insert an AI use statement if your university or journal asks for one.
6. Export to Word or to LaTeX.

Where to find it

• The Review panel and the Comments panel are tabs of the side panel. Press Side panel at the top right of a document.
• Export, the AI use statement, version history and sharing are in Document options, the three dots at the top right. Share, next to it, opens sharing in one step.
• Import Word document is in the Documents list in the sidebar and in the command palette.

Free and Plus

Each check you run in the Review panel uses one review, and each plan has its own allowance of reviews. See Your AI allowance. The Citation report is part of Plus.

Word and LaTeX export, import, version history and sharing work on both plans. On Free, an exported file has plain-text citations and, when the document cites sources, the list's heading and one line saying the list is part of Plus in place of the list. On Plus, the file includes the reference list: a Word file has live Zotero citations, and a LaTeX project has a references.bib file. To compare the plans, see pricing.

Your data

The AI checks send the text they need to OpenAI, which does not use it to train its models. Your documents stay private to your account unless you share a link to one, and your saved versions are never shared. See Privacy and your data and the Privacy Policy.
