Preparing a submission for The Annals of Family Medicine
The Annals of Family Medicine sets its own submission rules: length and word limits, the required citation and reference style, figure and table formatting, and editorial policies. Scraiber tracks 12 requirements for The Annals of Family Medicine and rewrites your manuscript to meet each one.
Instead of checking each rule by hand, import your draft into Scraiber, select The Annals of Family Medicine, and let it rewrite your text to match: the exact word limits, reference style and structure, so your paper is submission-ready.

Scraiber applies those changes to the draft you already have instead of you rebuilding the manuscript by hand.
