LaTeX/General Guidelines - Wikibooks, open books for an open world
During this guide we have seen what it is possible to do and how this can be achieved, but the question is: I want to write a proper text with LaTeX, what to do then? Where should I start from? This is a short step-by-step guide about how to start a document properly, keeping a good high-level structure.
The Ipe extensible drawing editor
Ipe is a drawing editor for creating figures in PDF or (encapsulated) Postscript format. It supports making small figures for inclusion into LaTeX-documents as well as making multi-page PDF presentations that can be shown on-line with Acrobat Reader. Ipe's main features are:
The fonts are from the Lucida Bright family, the same fonts that are used in the A.M.S. Notices. To me these look much better than TeX's default Computer Modern family which seems too light on the page when printed on a high-quality printer. Unfortunately the Lucida Bright fonts must be purchased, and the price is not trivial.

Ever seen those sweet research papers with that awesome font? That’s LaTeX. If you are a die-hard LaTeX fan you can pretty much stop reading this post right now. For the rest of us, Microsoft Word 2007 is often a practical alternative when pressed for time. I’ll be the first to admit that if you can be bothered getting your hands dirty, LaTeX makes documents look pretty damn sweet.

LaTeX Style and BiBTeX Bibliography Formats for Biologists: TeX and LaTeX Resources
Examples from The TeX showcase LaTeX is a typesetting language that runs circles around standard word processing programs because ... it is a true language. This means you can define new commands and do rather complex things. It is not really any harder to use than standard word processing programs such as word Y or word IM perfect but it beats them hands down. Because it is a vastly superior, permanent document preparation method, I write all my scientific papers, in LaTeX and then convert them automatically to html with latex2html, and to postscript and (more recently) to pdf with ghostscript .
Writing NIH Grant Application in LaTeX
Unlike NSF, the NIH does not seem to expect that grant applications (RO1, RO3, R21, ...) could be written in LaTeX. However, it appears possible to do so, fulfilling all NIH requirements and avoiding the horrors of MS Word or annoyances of OpenOffice. The submission SF424 package is contained in a single and rather fragile PDF file (click gently, wait, hope, wait, ...) where form fields are filled and many other PDF files with various bits of information are attached. Almost any of those files can be prepared in LaTeX but this guide is only concerned with the Abstract, Narrative, Specific Aims, Research Strategy, and References.
This is a guide to the LaTeX markup language. It is intended that this can serve as a useful resource for everyone from new users who wish to learn, to old hands who need a quick reference.

Classic Thesis for LyX | Nick Mariette | SoundsOrange
Here is a LyX port of “A Classic Thesis Style” by André Miede . This high quality thesis style for LaTeX was inspired by Robert Bringhurst’s “The Elements of Typographic Style”. The port was made by myself in March, 2009, using LyX version 1.6.2 with MacTEX-2008 , on Mac OS X 10.4.11. I had first adapted the classicthesis.sty to my own needs for typesetting my PhD thesis using LyX. Then, since there was some interest on the Internet for a LyX version, I decided to convert the .tex example files released with Classic Thesis into LyX.What is this? Anyone who works with LaTeX knows how time-consuming it can be to find a symbol in symbols-a4.pdf that you just can't memorize. Detexify is an attempt to simplify this search.

If you are a computer scientist, you'll want to use LaTeX . Some NIH folks are using LaTeX these days: Here is a great site from Dr. Schneider's lab at NIH describing the advantages of LaTeX over Word for your proposal. Here is a sample page from my R01, so you can see what these LaTeX files produce.
