It does a reasonable screen rendering of a fair amount of LaTeX, and (naturally) deals with math nicely. As preparation for serious printout, it won't cut it. > Scenario 1 and 2 are a lot faster. Also, the best scenario for me is to fix > only DSSSL bugs and not having to fix other bugs in other languages, this is DSSSL not specify how to break lines, make paragraphs, make pages, place floats etc. you cant get this for free anywhere.... I do wonder where this is going; if you want immediate download gratification, then whats wrong with HTML as a page description language, enhanced with SVG in due course? I never saw/see the TeX output from Jade as being of use for other than high-quality print versions, assembled at leisure. Maybe I am just behind the times.
