Hi Robert,

If you can convert the .doc format to .tex, I would be in a better 
position to contribute.  So would anybody with a simple text editor.  
 From .tex you can build .ps and .pdf very easily.  However, this would 
require installing MiKTeX on your Windows machine and learning how to 
use it, and I'm not sure if you care enough.

Anyway, great job!

Cheers,
Chris

P.S.  Once you make the switch to TeX, you can never go back to MS Word 
. . .
