Writing a dissertation in WORD???

« on: 26.02.07, 16:24:46 »


hi everyone,
i'm in my last year in college and i have to write a dissertation of about 80 pages to get my degree. Would you suggest writing it in Microsoft Word or is there a better software? I also need to take care of footnotes and all that crap and i have never used word so intensively...
thx, sbx

I once read a test comparing OpenOffice and Word. Word had the easier interface, but it has problems to handle documents with more then 30 pages they said. OpenOffice would not have this size-problems. I'll have a look later if I find the test again!

Lots of my friends use a program called LaTeX for this kind of stuff.

I don't have a link though...
