- I also recommend LaTeX. One problem however is that you need to learn LateX
- first. Get hold of a book on LaTeX, especially the one by Leslie Lamport.
-
- If you don't want to take that route, then you may consider buying
- Calligrapher professional (from Working Titles in UK). It's got a very
- good equation editor as well as a Table generator & whole lot of goodies
- suitale for technical wordprocessing.
-
- Hope this helps.
