My wife just went through this, not too long ago for her thesis, and she could not find anything. Of course her university required a Word document, going back and forth to her committee, and she had to provide the hard copies for the actual publishing / copyrighting of the work.

It is quite difficult, especially dealing with complex formulas, graphs of models, fitting them correctly in the document for correct page formatting, indexes, headers, footers, biblio, etc..

Any comments and suggestions are extremely welcome. I know this is not what you are looking for, but what turned out easiest for her was to have a pdf file of the work, and this has worked out well. Other professors interested in her area, requesting the thesis are sent a copyrighted pdf. This has been her path of least resistance. <g> -- Gary
