But I would ? \input eplain ?, if only for its TOC, index, cite and biblio support. Or, if you are feeling adventurous, you could try ConTeXt. Depending on what fonts you choose to use, you may find XeTeX to be the better TeX engine to use. It can access otf fonts directly and supports their features. XeTeX was originally OSX-only, but there is now a beta for Linux - which should also work on any of the BSDs, provided fontconfig is installed. Otherwise, I hear that dvipdfmx is the best choice for generating PDFs which are maximally compatable with the workflows and RIPs currently used for lithographic presses. -JimC -- James H.
