TEX at a glance
TEX
Convert to TEX when the destination workflow expects source for LaTeX or TeX-based publishing rather than a finished office document.
It is the right target for papers, theses, technical manuals, books, and any content that will be typeset with strong control over equations, references, and print layout.
Use TEX when structured source and compile-time publishing matter more than immediate WYSIWYG editing.
