<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">The purpose of the Writer4LaTeX extension is to turn Writer into a frontend for LaTeX.
By installing Writer4LaTeX you will thus be available to author well-structured LaTeX documents using (almost) the full power of
%PRODUCTNAME Writer.
The functionality of %PRODUCTNAME Writer with Writer4LaTeX can be compared to the application

<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">You can prepare your documents with Writer as you usually do,
keeping a few
<link href="org.openoffice.da.writer4latex.oxt/guidelines.xhp" name="Guidelines">guidelines</link> in mind.
You can then invoke Writer4LaTeX to convert your document into LaTeX, process the LaTeX document and display the final result. You are free to create either a LaTeX document that preserves as much of your formatting as possible – or create a clean LaTeX document that will resemble a LaTeX document created by hand.

<link href="org.openoffice.da.writer4latex.oxt/templates.xhp" name="Using the templates">Writer templates</link>
provided with Writer4LaTeX to
create your documents. Using the styles supported by these templates, you can easily create standard LaTeX documents
using the opportunities of standard LaTeX document classes.
</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">For this initial version, templates for the standard LaTeX classes article
are provided. More templates will be added later (report, book, beamer...), and you can also add your own templates.

<paragraph role="heading" level="2" xml-lang="en-US">LaTeX import</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">You can import existing LaTeX documents into Writer.
This feature uses Eitan M. Gurari's excellent TeX4ht system. Note however, that this doesn't mean that roundtrip
editing %PRODUCTNAME Writer ↔ LaTeX is possible. The intended use of the import feature is to be able to work on documents
that were orginally authored in LaTeX.

This requires that you have
