Subject:Math documents: To TeX or not to TeX? From:Miren Carranza <carranza -at- CLI -dot- COM> Date:Sat, 9 Jul 1994 15:56:13 CDT
I am a technical person (and a technical translator wannabee). In any
case in my technical circles TeX and LaTeX are believed to be the best
kind of tools to produce documents with mathematical stuff in them. I
also have heard that technical writers do not seem all that
enthusiastic to use either TeX or LaTeX for that purpose. My question
is:
What do y'all prefer to use for documents that contain a lot of
mathematical stuff?
Please answer to me and I will collect responses and post a summary to
the list.
