Digital Imaging and Remote Sensing Laboratory R.I.TR.I.TR.I.TR.I.T R.I.TR.I.TR.I.TR.I.T Motivation Why you should not use MS Word for your thesisWhy you should not use MS Word for your thesis –Word can not handle very large documents –It does a terrible job at formatting equations –Sometimes the equations don’t even print! –You can run into problems with saving the document –You spend all your time figuring out the layout Why you should use LaTeXWhy you should use LaTeX –LaTeX is a typesetting program –People use it to write entire books! –It is designed to implement perfect (AMS) math –It does the layout automatically!

Work aroundWork around –Use DVI  PS –In GSview, you can manually set the compression settings when saving as PDF –Use File/Convert/pdfwrite
