Hello Larry & MathGroup:

Does using Publicon obviate the need for LyX completely?

Can you say if Publicon will be subsumed under/inside TeXForm[]?

What does Publicon do with active elements (e.g. Manipulate[], Dynamic
[], et.al.)?

I did some testing with TeXFom[] and I found it cannot "eat" Graphics3D
[], let alone Dynamic[]. But it does process even amazingly
complicated formulas very nicely!

Regards..
