Latex is a tool used to prepare documents. It is very useful to write scientific documents but can also be used to write a wide variety of other documents. Latex is not a word processor instead you concentrate on writing the content and Latex will format it for you. Latex is not a What You See is What You Get (WYSWG) editor like Microsoft Word. Almost everything in Latex can be customized, however it is recommended to stick with the default values as much as possible.
At the end of this tutorial you should be able to create a basic Latex documents. We will also show you resources so that with a little work you will be able to create almost any type document.
