Input your title, authors, institutions, and conference name once—separated by simple delimiters—and the extension creates a professionally formatted header with correct spacing, font hierarchy, and institutional attribution mapping. It supports both Inkscape&rsquo;s native text rendering and LaTeX output for publication-quality typography.</p>
