What to verify before submission
TypesetOS formats the rules represented by this released preset. Always compare the output with the current instructions for your degree, department, submission system, required forms, signatures, and front matter.
Known preset limitation: Block quotations render double-spaced rather than single-spaced, and level-5 headings don't run in to their paragraph; in-text citation formatting is the student's own responsibility.
