People, this poor guy has some documents, most probably *not* written by himself, he needs to read. Advice to re-write his documents is completely besides the point!
That is correct, I am not in the position to rewrite the whole work. I already know some LaTeX and I love it, but I haven't the time or the credibility to do a rewrite (I am a student and the system is sub-par here in Romania). Vlad, if you don't mind, please send one of your docs (a small one, not more
than 100KB, I am with a modem) and I'll tell you whether they can be rendered properly in kword or OpenOffice. I'll let you know about the outcome. If you send it, please do so off-list. Uwe
Uwe, thanks for the offer, I sent you the file.
