Blast from the past: LaTeX
If you go online, be careful what resources you find to help you with your LaTeX questions. There’s some pretty old stuff out there that will give you the wrong information. In fact, working with LaTeX is a bit retro, since most cool people are working their way into XML, XSLT, etc. Typesetting is so old-school, but when I hit the “build and view” button in TeXnic, and my document appears — and looks like a professional print job, I get addicted to success. I tried the XML stuff, but for highly quirky works that don’t change much, LaTeX is the answer, I think. Especially since I find myself a bit invested.
