Hello MathGroup: Thanks for this info Larry. I think what I wanted to type before was TeXSave (now obsolete replaced with Export[..."TeX"]). I know that ther are a few books that were mostly "formatted" in Mathematica (the Navigator book & the MathStatica book come to mind). And most of the publishing threads here talk about exporting to EPS then to LaTeX or exporting MathML. So, I would like to know: Has anyone successfully converted a full Mathematica notebook using Export[] or File-->SaveAs--> (name).tex and then pushed it over to a TeX implmentation (e.g. LyX) and had this "look correct"? Thanks in advance. Regards..
