Learn LaTeX : Complex doc on e-mail

Your correspondent doesn't have a TeX installation? You have these options:

1. convert the TeX source file to HTML. There are good conversion programs for this purpose. Then your correspondent can read your text using a web browser.

2. Does your correspondent have access to a Postscript printer? If yes, you could send a fully typeset version of your document in the form of a postscript file, which she can just send to the printer. And/or she can view it on screen if she installs the "ghostview" program (free)

3. Does your correspondent have the "Acroread" reader for Adobe PDF files installed? If so, you can send a PDF version of your typeset document.
