    Word is great if you only have words in it. Add a picture? A chart or graph? Suddenly your words have become lemmings with oppositional defiant disorders and jump off the margins.

    You clearly don’t know how use Word :P

    Trust me it has a learning curve, once you learn how to align things properly and use the provided options in reasonable ways it doesn’t fail, ever.

      If word has a long learning curve, and LaTeX also has a long learning curve.

      Why should people use something that is close sourced, spies on user, and expensive; instead of using tools that is free, private, standardized, and open?
