@azonenberg@ioc.exchange @dtl@8bitorbust.info one of the “most proud” moments at IBM was converting multiple teams to using LaTeX for all our customer documents. The learning curve wasn’t very steep since I build some classes and such to simplify things. We also (dear god this is painful) fed Rational Software Architect docs into a Python script that generated all of the diagrams and documentation we often had to provide to customers.
This was going on for 8 years.

@petrillic@hachyderm.io @dtl@8bitorbust.info at least some groups are using shared ms word docs now rather than emailing foo v2 (johndoe edit).docx around like we did in years past
