Business Description Presently, I am writing a book, heavy with equations, light with figures. I am using Word augmented. My biggest problems are (1)equation creation even with Design Science augmentation of Word, (2) engineering graphs (several programs do not do what I need), (3) schematic drawings (what software)? This is ten year project, research output. I am retired with no financial support for this huge job.
Tips/Advice Find a typist that you can afford(I could not because of equations and technical graphics). My plan is to have the final product go to outside printer.
