I've only dabbled in the Sciencv application - I'm happy about the CV
pdf, but not the C&P

>> _NSF-approved Formats_
>>
>> * *_SciENcv_*: NSF has partnered with the National Institutes
>> of Health (NIH) to use SciENcv: Science Experts Network
>> Curriculum Vitae <https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sciencv/> as
>> an NSF-approved format for use in preparation of both the
>> Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support sections
>> of an NSF proposal. SciENcv will produce an NSF-compliant PDF
>> version of the documents which proposers can save and submit
>> as part of their proposals via FastLane, Research.gov or
>> Grants.gov. Additional information about the NSF-approved
>> SciENcv formats is available on the NSF biographical sketch
>> <https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/biosketch.jsp> and
>> current and pending support
>> <https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/cps.jsp> websites.
>>
>> The SciENcv tool integrates with ORCID, enabling proposers to
>> populate their Biographical Sketches by importing data directly
>> from their ORCID records rather than having to manually enter all
>> the required information. Additionally, Biographical Sketch data
>> maintained in SciENcv can be quickly and easily updated on an
>> ongoing basis for subsequent proposal submissions.
>>
>> * *_NSF Fillable PDF_*: NSF is also providing a fillable PDF as
>> an NSF-approved format for use to prepare both the
>> Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support sections
>> of an NSF proposal. Proposers can download the respective
>> fillable PDF form from the NSF biographical sketch
>> <https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/biosketch.jsp> and
>> current and pending support
>> <https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/cps.jsp> websites and
>> then submit the completed forms as part of their proposals
>> via FastLane, Research.gov or Grants.gov. Note that the NSF
>> fillable PDF for the Biographical Sketch does not integrate
>> with ORCID.
>>
>> It is important to note that *beginning June 1, 2020*, proposers
>> will be required to use one of the NSF-approved formats for both
>> the Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support sections
>> of NSF proposals. Proposals submitted via FastLane, Research.gov
>> and Grants.gov will be compliance checked to ensure that the
>> documents were prepared in accordance with this new policy.
>>
>> _We Want Your Feedback_
>>
>> Although not required for proposal submission until June 1, 2020,
>> we hope that you will start using the NSF-approved formats for
>> Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support as soon as
>> possible. If you have any feedback that would help us make

>> page (select “Biographical Sketch” or "Current & Pending Support"
>> under the Site Area dropdown menu).
>>
>> _Upcoming Webinars_
>>
>> To assist the community about these new requirements and to start
>> using SciENcv now, NSF and NIH are planning to conduct a joint
>> webinar that will include a walk-through of how to prepare the
>> Biographical Sketch and Current and Pending Support documents in
>> SciENcv. Information will be provided as soon as it is available,

>> We also invite you to participate in the next NSF Electronic
>> Research Administration (ERA) Forum
>> <https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/era_forum.jsp> on *May 14,
>> 2020 at 1:00PM – 2:30PM EDT* where we will discuss the
