[Phys-L] Re: LaTeX in physics



Physics Education takes articles in any format we can read. I'd hate to
reject something a teacher had spent precious time on just because we had a
'policy'. Most stuff comes in as .doc files especially from teachers, some
LaTex but not much, some pdf.

Cheers

<div>A representative of a publishing house just told me that

<div>Do you agree with her assessment?&nbsp; (I use LaTeX all the
