Writer2LaTeX is a utility that converts documents in OpenDocument format - in particular documents containing formulas - into other formats. It is actually a collection of four converters:

• Writer2LaTeX: converts documents into LaTeX 2e format for high quality typesetting.
• Writer2xhtml: converts documents into XHTML 1.0, XHTML 1.1, XHTML 1.1+MathML 2.0 or HTML5 with CSS2. This provides standards-compliant XHTML and brings your math to the web.
• Writer2BibTeX: is a companion to Writer2LaTeX that extracts bibliographic data from a document and stores it in BibTeX format.
• Calc2xhtml: is a companion to Writer2xhtml that converts spreadsheet documents to XHTML 1.0 or XHTML 1.1 with CSS2 to display your spreadsheets on the web.

Word processors are great, but they’re also pretty simple. They’re fine for writing letters or essays, but they’re not for complex documents – they’re just not designed for it. LaTeX, a document preparation system used by scientists and mathematicians, aims to get around the problem.

Rather than relying on software to format your document, LaTeX markup is used, giving you the opportunity to introduce elements like complicated mathematical equations. You could do this in a plain, old text editor like Vim or, if you’d prefer to see your LaTeX formatting appear as you write, a LaTeX editor.

Here are five of the best LaTeX editors you could use if you’re a Linux user.

Best practice and tips & tricks to write scientific papers in LaTeX, with figures generated in Python or Matlab.

To make note tak­ing using LaTeX vi­able, I had four goals in mind:

• Writ­ing text and math­e­mat­i­cal for­mu­las in LaTeX should be as fast as the lec­tur­er writ­ing on a black­board: no delay is ac­cept­able.
• Draw­ing fig­ures should be al­most as fast as the lec­tur­er.
• Man­ag­ing notes, i.e. adding a note, com­pil­ing all my notes, com­pil­ing the last two lec­tures, search­ing in notes, etc. should be easy and quick.
• An­no­tat­ing pdf doc­u­ments using LaTeX should be pos­si­ble for when I want to write notes along­side a pdf doc­u­ment.
  This blog post will focus on the first item: writ­ing LaTeX.

Once you get over the learning curve, there is nothing like LaTex. Here are the best LaTex editors for Linux and other systems.

Pybtex reads citation information from a file and produces a formatted bibliography. BibTeX style files are supported. Alternatively it is possible to write styles in Python.

Pybtex currently understands the following bibliography formats:

• BibTeX
• BibTeXML
• YAML-based format

The resulting bibliography may be output in one of the following formats (not supported by legacy BibTeX styles):

• LaTeX
• HTML
• markdown
• plain text

An online LaTeX editor that's easy to use. No installation, real-time collaboration, version control, hundreds of LaTeX templates, and more.

I'm generating a PDF document with pdflatex (more precisely, latexmk invoked from TexMaker 3.4. My LaTeX install is TeXLive 20120719). I can read the document fine in Okular and Gmail's attachment preview, but a colleague that runs Acrobat Reader on Windows reports: "There was a problem reading this document (131)".
