​They are tools. Power users of each tools will find that they are on the "better" side. Some peoples feel that latex, with all the commands everywhere is too ​complicated, but when you learn a bit about it it's ok. Same for LibreOffice; there's properties dialog everywhere, multiple levels of styles, and not-always intuitive page management, but when you learn a bit about it it's ok. And in both case, doing anything that's more advanced will require more learning. Setting up the "best" template for your work can be tedious with any tools, LO and latex included. But writing a ~100 lines latex class file to match an (imposed) template is as tedious as setting the correct chain of styles in LO... Regarding the "greater control" statement, it's the same. You can have a lot of control in both, but it's gonna be some work. But I'll concede, one of latex advantages is that it have sensible default settings for various usages :) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
