["Broberg, Mats" <mabr -at- flir -dot- se>]

 4)  Is LaTeX 'printer-independent'?

Yes, as DVI or PDF.

 5)  Is it supported by the 'run-of-the-mill' commercial printer?

Yes, since it outputs PDF.

 6)  What is the 'cost of ownership'?

USD 0

7)  Is it a tool that is easily taught?

No...

12)  What makes it better than 'nroff/troff'?

E,g. because nroff/troff/groff does not use a paragraph-based H&J algorithm

13)  What platform/operating systems is it 'native' to?

Available for all platforms.

14)  How much of an investment does a company have to make to get the
application, and keep it for 5 years?

USD 0

Mats Broberg
