The render icon (looks like a gear wheel) will allow you to create a frame that can be used to access LaTeX. If you have lots of formulae you might consider typesettng your document in TeX instead. Your choices are pdftlatex (most popular), pdftex (simplest) Context (my choice for nonfiction) and luatex or lualatex (with Context allows widest range of fonts.) You can download the texlive distribution from http:/www.tug.org. There is of course a significant learning curve with any form of TeX. But for books with formulae, Table of Contents, index, footnotes, bibliography etc. TEX has decades of development behind it. I use TeX primarily for book interiors, but for my current book I am going to use Scribus, to see how good it is for complex interiors. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
