What people change in a research paper

  • • Author names and affiliations
  • • Typos in text and captions
  • • Acknowledgements

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Footer text never moves into the body when you edit it.

LaTeX papers

PDFs from LaTeX often embed fonts with only the characters used. Small corrections usually work; longer additions are best made in the source.

Add supplements

Combine the paper with supplementary material using Merge PDF.
