[Phys-L] Re: LaTeX in physics (resend in plain text)

[Jack Uretsky <jlu@HEP.ANL.GOV>]

I think that since about 1990 I've submitted all papers in LaTeX.  This
includes AJP, Physics Letters, NIM A, and JMP plus a couple of rejects
(from math journals - which probably don't count).  Also, LaTeX is the way
to go for the ArXiV.
                                Regards,
                                        Jack
