   What LATEX can do?     

How much better are documents made with LATEX as compared to, say, Microsoft Word or Apple's Pages?  

Are they visually comparable with other word-processing apps? 

Here, I've selected some (made with LATEX documents) from the Internet plus some are my own work. 

Have a look at what today's computers; with LATEX software can produce. (without  the need to go to a publisher!)

6.   Two pages from my own PhD thesis using the Andre Miede's template (that is based on Robert Bringhurst's book ELEMENTS OF TYPOGRAPHIC STYLE)
