Seems like this thread is a bit off topic now, but I'll chime in anyway. When I co-write a paper with latex users, I use latexdiff: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexdiff/ When I need reviews from non-latex users (e.g. my boss), I have them markup a PDF by hand or via pdf markup so

I've started keeping papers under version control for latex. But, if I have collaborators who use word, then I just track changes. On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 9:13 PM, Ryan May wrote: > Yeah, I check in my LaTeX file, bibliography, and any python scripts > for figures into a subversion repo. > > Ry

We have old-stylers as well :) http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ has nice annotation tools for PDF reviewing, and its very fast and it works on Linux through CrossOver (probably would work via wine as well). What type of revision tracking do you use? Treat your documents like code? Google c

Hi Ryan, What is your typical reviewing process? Do you ask people to review on PDF outputs or via version controlled Latex document? OpenOffice also has a good review system where I can track my/others changes easily. On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 3:27 PM, Ryan May wrote: > I know this started with

I know this started with non-Latex, but I've found that passing around latex-generated PDFs works well to get reviews from non-Latex people. But then again, the people I work with don't rely upon MS Office's electronic editing capabilities. Ryan On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 12:43 PM, Gökhan Sever wro

No, it comes with problems --especially in equation transformation. I mostly work on Linux (Fedora 12). I get MS Office 2007 installed through CrossOver, but it has glitches and doesn't look very safe to use for a big project. On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 12:17 PM, william ratcliff < william.ratcl...@

Have you had good luck keeping the formatting going between open office and MS word? What about equations? On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 12:42 PM, Gökhan Sever wrote: > > > On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 11:23 AM, Konstantin Klementiev < > [email protected]> wrote: > >> >I like to use png files at 300dpi.

Hi Paul, I usually use dpi=100. We have lots of MS Office users here and I don't want to use a file format where they can't easily access my documents. It's always easier to get reviews following their format. I plan to write in OpenOffice and later convert the text to MS Office format. There is s
