Portability with Linux

Version: 2.5 - Scientific WorkPlace & Scientific Word

Q. Can I process SW V. 2.5 documents using LaTeX under Linux?

A. Our users who run both Linux and Windows 95 on their PCs report that they have access to DOS partitions in Linux, so they can see documents created with SW. They find that if they tell LaTeX where the SW macros are located, then they can process their SW documents using LaTeX under Linux. They note that the documents contain fairly complex equations and various fonts but are not otherwise complex.
