Why not Markdown - pandoc - epub/pdf?
- saaaaaam 29d agoPresumably because the publisher takes the manuscript and does all the formatting and so on.
- hk__2 29d agoNot OP but probably to be able to tweak the layout without having a doctorate in LaTeX templates.
- testing22321 29d agoI did LaTeX -> pandoc -> print ready pdf & epub. I really liked it because I have infinite layout control with LaTeX, and it’s a full blown programming language with if statements, operator overloading, functions, etc etc. makes it really easy to have one source document that does different things when outputting to different formats.
