latex

[Justin Harford]

Hi all 

I have never really had much luck with rtf2latex. For example I just installed it again to see how it would go, and and it is not recognizing setspace, fancyhdr, my custom enviornment commands, or my footnotes. It also does not recognize the diacritic marks for Spanish. 

What am I doing wrong to make it not work? I am using this on mac os x.

She would work on it and run rtf2latex, and send it back to me. You won't be surprised to learn that concatenating those two programs did produce some trouble.  The mathematics didn't always come back in proper latex code.
