A Typst template for MIS Quarterly manuscript submissions.

This template reproduces MISQ’s formatting requirements in Typst, including Times New Roman body text, double-spaced paragraphs, three-level numbered headings, a title page with abstract and keywords, and APA 7th edition citations via a bundled CSL file. Authors can write and submit manuscripts without LaTeX.

Usage

Import the template from Typst Universe:

#import "@preview/magnificent-misq:0.1.0": misq

Set up the document with your manuscript metadata:

#show: misq.with(
  title: [Your Manuscript Title],
  abstract: [
    Your abstract text here.
  ],
  keywords: ("keyword one", "keyword two", "keyword three"),
  paragraph-style: "indent",
)

See template/main.typ for a complete example document.

Parameters

The misq() function accepts the following parameters:

Parameter Type Description
title content Manuscript title
abstract content Abstract text
keywords array of strings Keyword list
paragraph-style string "indent" for first-line indented paragraphs (default) or "block" for block paragraphs with spacing between them

Features

  • Three heading levels with automatic numbering (1, 1.1, 1.1.1)
  • APA 7th edition citations via bundled CSL file
  • Title page with abstract and keywords
  • Double-spaced body text
  • Correct margins per MISQ submission guidelines
  • Single-spaced bibliography, figures, and tables

Bibliography

Add your references with a standard Typst bibliography call placed after the body:

#bibliography("references.bib", title: "References")

The template automatically applies APA 7th edition formatting. Do not pass a style: argument — the template handles it.
