TeX. I was able to use it during school for some beautiful type setting and formatting but nobody I work with wants to use anything other than plain text or unfortunately more commonly binary wysiwyg editor formats. It’s frustrating and ugly.
What WYSIWYG binary formats have you been using? OpenDocument is zipped XML. OOXML is also zipped XML. RTF is plain text. Everything else is dead. RTF is too, actually.
One way I do TeX now is a few templates (letter, memo, etc) and circulate files in PDF.
If you must use Word to circulate files, consider Pandoc as a way to get them out.
I support them and don’t support you.
Why overcomplicate things? If you want to work harder for nothing extra, great. But don’t put that on everyone else.
I somewhat disagree.
WYSIWYG document editors are terrible at getting things exactly as you want.
If you’re a perfectionist, especially in presentation, it’s probably easier to adopt TeX than it is to get (Open)Office to do exactly what you want into.
That’s the thing, most people don’t care because it doesn’t matter.
Imagine wasting their time to satisfy your OCD, lol.
Binary wysiwyg is shit for versioning, I hate it. Plaintext is fine but limited. I like both markdown and tex.
