About LaTeX
LATEX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features designed for the production of technical and scientific documentation. It takes a computer file, prepared according to the rules of LATEX, and converts it to a form that may be printed on a high-quality printer, such as a laser writer, to produce a printed document of a quality comparable with good quality books and journals. Simple documents, which do not contain mathematical formulae or tables may be produced very easily and effectively.
Why LATEX is more important?
(1) TEX Math Mode is a thing of beauty. Equations come out looking correct.
(2) TEX is guaranteed to be bug free. The author, Stanford Professor Donald Knuth, will send you a reward check if you find a bug. The reward is currently $ 327.68 (that is, 215 cents).
(3) TEX is free (as in beer) and free (as in speech)
(4) There are no TEX ”macro” viruses. You can safely receive TEX documents by email and not worry about it reading your OutLook address book and mailing copies of itself to all your friends.
(5) TEX has no GUID (Globally Unique Identifier). Word documents are embedded with a code that can be traced back to your computer (the police captured the author of the Melissa virus by tracing his GUID). Big brother Bill is watching!
(6) TEX versions are not incompatible. The file format has never changed.
(7) TEX documents are small and lean. What’s the smallest Word file on your computer? (8) LATEX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features designed for the production of technical and scientific documentation, further most of the Scientific International Journals (SCI, SCIE, SCOPUS, etc.) having good impact factors and International book publishers (Springer, Elsevier etc.) are publishing their writings in LATEX
