- If you have to create documents for study you have to use TeX because
- a) only this package allows you to include formulas and tables
- into your document in a professional manner and
- b) TeX is a standard, you can write your text at home and
- print it out everywhere.
-
- But if you want to include any bitmap-graphics you will get problems
- because the needed \special-commands are *not* platform-independent.
-
- Here comes iff2eps in: It converts your IFF-bitmap into an EPSF-file
- which can be included into TeX-documents using dvips in a platform-
- independent manner.
- So you can translate and print out your document under AmigaDOS,
- UNIX, LINUX, DOS,... keeping all graphics.
- That's nice, isn't it ?
