Hello, The response about LaTex from Liz is right on. I actually use LaTex often for work that might be done in Word, once you get over the first hump to learn it and get some templates built, it is easy to re use them.

If I can help, let me know. I do have some templates I could send and you could run them thru your LaTex and check if they work. They work on mine Scott -- Scott D.
