Creating documents
First off, congrats on creating a new account! 🎉 With your new spiffy profile page, you're ready to get started on on the best part of Authorea---uploading and creating documents. There are two ways you can create new content, and are both available by clicking on the New button.
1. Uploading/importing an existing document
Authorea allows you to get started easily by importing a draft you've already created or started working on elsewhere. Have a Google Doc? Import it by copying/pasting the public link. Have a Word doc? Upload the .docx file. If you're not one of the gazillion people writing on Word or Google Docs, don't worry, you can also upload your LaTeX files! Tip: upload an entire ZIP package that contains .tex, .bib, and images. We'll process everything for you.
