We understand that Interleaf "Publisher" is one possibility here. Does anyone have any experience with using Interleaf on both systems? Are there other (cheaper) alternatives? It would be especially helpful if it were based on TeX/LaTeX. We understand that there are some WYSIWYG versions of TeX/LaTeX available on both (Arbor Text on Sun, Textures on Mac), but we do not know of a system where the same interface would be available on both machines. How, in general, has this problem been solved? Surely there are a lot of other institutions such as ours where Macs are used mainly for text processing and Suns otherwise. But we still want to be able to use a single text formatter on both. p.s. Because of the high cost of e-mail, I would appreciate it if responses were either posted or kept relatively short. Thanks in advance, Tony Fischer fischer@ira.uka.de, unido!uka!fischer
