Introduction: + +"Making Friends with LaTeX" (MFwL) started out as a small presentation, which i +used to introduce my students to LaTeX. However, with the release of Ver 1.00 +in Jauary 2006, I received a lot of feedback on the presentation and I +therefore decided to extend it. The second version, made using the powerdot +package, has been extended and currently this presentation stands at 64 slides; +more than double from its first version + +The objective of MFwL is to introduce new comers to LaTeX and make them aware +of various aspects of working with LaTeX. It covers: + +(a) LaTeX Advocacy +(b) LateX Document Structure +(c) Paragraph Mode and Math Mode +(d) Structuring the document +(e) Creating Tables, Graphics (in very short) +(f) BibTeX +(g) Recommendations for a LaTeX system +(h) References for further reading + +It's objective is not to make a person expert in using LaTeX but to get the +person interested in LaTeX by making him understand the LaTeX way of working. +The intention is that once the person is comfortable with the idea s/he can +then explore the wonders of LaTeX on his/her own pace + +7. Feedback: + +Please feel free to give your feedback. The Only request is that in the +subject line please include "MFwL". This will help me filter mails and +respond quickly + +9.
