Description

Have you considered using Mathematica 4 to publish an article or a book? This session will focus on some of the issues and concerns involved in using Mathematica to produce a book from the beginning through the end, including style sheets and environments, footers, headers, dimensioning, design, and page layout. We will also look at the extra concerns involved in producing a book that includes documentation similar to the definition boxes found in the Help Browser. Comments will be based on recent experience coauthoring Exploring Abstract Algebra with Mathematica and publishing it with Springer-Verlag as well as on experience writing many of the initial files with Version 2.2, converting them to Version 3.0, and then preparing PostScript files with Alpha 4.0.
