- A friend of mine is planning to publish a book which is mostly completed.
- He is currently writing it on Wordperfect 5.1. The book is aimed at a
- general population (i.e. not student level) but is a form of study book.
- So the layout will be fairly non-standard. Are there suggestions as to
- the best way to approach this kind of publication. I have access to
- TeX, Pagemaker, and Ami-pro (I think that's what it's called), but am
- unsure as to what would be best for a publisher. Suggestions please...

- PS Couldn't GN2 in the FAQ be expanded a little to cover this kind of thing?
