This guide introduces an open-source toolkit for writing research papers and monographs. The main features of this toolkit centered around Emacs and Org-mode are: 1) embedding R code in the document that allows for statistical results to be revised and reproduced, 2) bibliographic citations from an integrated database, 3) formatting using well defined styles with minimal markup, 4) support for production of final output as pdf, odt, docx, html and many other formats.

See the file orgpapers.org for the main text of the guide.
