I want to apply a standard header controlling layout and typesetting rules to any document I prepare (basically the same as that which I use for my doxygen output). I could have this is the preamble, but then I'd have a copy with every document rather than a single centrally managed version, and every author would have to remember to set it up (and my 'authors' are reluctant developers who would rather use word :-). I could start being clever and set up packages to include my layout and titlepage stuff and use that in the preamble, but found it easier to process the output in two steps, and I also get the opportunity to do further post processing of the latex with perl before generating the pdf. And I'd still have the same problem out *where* the results of the export get put. cheers guy
