Submitting to an academic conference and once more am completely amazed that people who call themselves academic technologists use LaTeX to make PDFs to communicate their research. This is by far the worst widely-adopted software I've ever used, and I really hope I don't ever use it again. Awful nonsense, which I think is only still in use for the purposes of gatekeeping other disciplines away from interacting with computer science. #rant

The answer is, once again, #WEB2PRINT!!!!!
@yaxu In many disciplines, LaTeX is the worst except for everything else.
For my PhD thesis, I don't know any other tools that would have done the job. I needed not just standard mathematics, but non-standard math notation. That required writing TeX macros (not LaTeX), which is another circle of hell. But it was possible.
If Markdown is good enough for you, consider yourself lucky!
