So, =20 first, my heartiest thanks to you both and also to Thomas Schmitz for =20= his Greek module. I currently use ConTeXt to publish the Institute=92s review/journal =20 (which is available online, in print, and on CD), as well as its =20 brochures and announcements. I will also be using it to produce its =20 books too. I have designed a book publication series for my brother using =20 ConTeXt; and I use it to write my own papers, reviews, and books. The main problem that I have is not really with ConTeXt itself. Since =20= few of the history of science journals that I send papers to use =20 ConTeXt, I am often required to I submit an .rtf file along with =20 the .pdf file produced with ConTeXt. So, what I am still =20 contemplating is an efficient, =93mechanical=94 way around this problem.
