Hi everybody.

I'm new on the forum, I'm French and studying IT at AFPA .
After using some software as LibreOffice or OpenOffice, I'm deciding now to try to understand Tex; Latex and Co.

Editing a document by this way looks a bit more technical but the documentation looks so professional , and it's funny to discover and understand .

I'm Linuxian so you guess that I use to try many, many different solution for everything, and for the moment it's editing with tex.

I'm searching some tips, to learn and writting step by step, I'm learning by step, start using a template and start to understand how a structure is build, how to call a usepackage, section, sub-section (not to difficult).

Freely Ordinatous.

Hi Ordinatous,

welcome to the forum!

Very good decision to try TeX. By the way, there's also a French TeX forum, sharing the server with us: TeXnique.fr. Your questions and answers would be welcome there too. Everything that we write on the Internet will help further users in the future.

Welcome to our forum,

i like to recommend LaTeX for complete novices and the other free online books of the series.

On the other hand, i am not a fan of templates. They are a mixture of the good, the bad and the ugly. Unfortunately, I see the latter two most often in templates. And i have seen a lot.

Thanks for the answer.
