The editors then give back the .doc with comments attached. s/Word/LibreOffice/, I do not have Windows, let alone Word. The core problem with the workflow, is that it assumes the author is only there to provide content and has no say in any other aspect of the book. As someone more used to providing press PDF this is irritating. However I could get over it, if the workflow involved a source I can put into version control. Obviously XeLaTeX is the correct medium, but AsciiDoc is acceptable as a second best. Any suggestion of DocBook/XML as authored source is generally met with derision, especially given there is AsciiDoc. I have to admit, doing a Go or D book, is kind of appealing. Technically I am supposed to be doing "Python for Rookies, 2e" but it isn't happening for reasons I would rather not let the NSA know about. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
