publCIF takes a crystallographic information file (CIF) and prepares a formatted paper (Preprint) in the style of Acta Crystallographica Sections C and E.

The CIF and the Preprint are presented side-by-side and are both editable. Changes made to one are applied to the other as you type.

Starting with a CIF resulting from a structure refinement, use publCIF to:

• Add data items required for publication, using simple wizards that check your input and access both dictionary information and data used in previous CIFs

• Prepare standard and customized geometry tables using simple spread sheets

• Write your paper using a word-processing environment

• Check your CIF, for both syntax and completeness

• Print or export a Preprint of your paper

publCIF employs extensive CIF syntax and dictionary compliance checking, both as you type and when specifically requested. In addition, it provides a number of editorial tools to help you write your paper in the style required by IUCr journals.

The latest public version of publCIF (version 1.9) offers a choice of Preprints, reflecting recent changes to the IUCr journals, especially Acta Crystallographica Section E :

•   Acta C preprint - essentially unchanged from previous versions
•   Acta E preprint - including the new 'related_literature' item and providing tools to generate it
•   General preprint - showing all standard items for a 'small-molecule' CIF, including 'supplementary materials'

In addition, it is now possible to:

•   Include schemes and figures in the Preprint
•    'Spellcheck' the CIF using an interactive spelling checker
