Call for Papers/Abstracts
PracTeX Journal: Issue 2007-3
Tools for LaTeX and TeX Users
http://www.tug.org/pracjourn/

Submissions due July 22, 2007 (extended)

Dear LaTeX and TeX Users,

In recent years there has been increasing development of
text/table/graphic editing tools for LaTeX and TeX. Consequently,
easy-to-use tools that can be accessed by a graphical user interface
(GUI) are becoming more popular and many are currently available on
the web.
Tools like JabRef (Java GUI front end for managing BibTeX and other
bibliographies), LyX (a GUI word processor that uses LaTeX for
printing and supports structural editing of LaTeX markup), and others
are emerging as major players in the GUI tools area.

The PracTeX Journal Issue 2007-3 has the theme, "Tools for LaTeX and
TeX Users". The intention is to present ideas on the development of,
and experiences on the use of, these tools.

The scope of the issue includes, but is not limited to :
- tools that assist the author in preparing graphics, indexes,
bibliographies, and other parts of documents;
- previews, and PostScript/PDF manipulation tools;
- free or almost free tools;
- cross-platform tools.

We encourage you to submit original papers describing your experiences
using LaTeX and TeX tools, and also papers on tool development work in
progress or completed.
