LaTeX A document preparation system
My question: If I had LaTex installed on my iMac with OS 10.2.8 would it
take the place of MSWord X for producing my final document for submission to
scientific journal. Or on my next Mac when Tiger comes out, LaTeX can take
the place of MSWord and I won't need it at all?
Using Octave/Gnuplot/AquaTerm I can save as pdf or eps. Current MS Word does
not fully support PDFs and creates a bitmap, therefore print quality is not
adequate. If I insert the EPS into MS Word, I can print with good quality
but cannot see the eps on the screen because I don't have/don't know how to
make an EPS file with Tiff or PICT preview.
So is LaTex the solution to my problem? I could also buy iWorks which
supports PDF and therefore won't rasterize (make a bit map) of my PDF files
that were created with AquaTerm.
