Submitting a manuscript through Wiley's #ResearchExchange was a nicely hassle-free process compared to #ScholarOne. I can see why they are ditching the old one for this. My only complaint is the lack of support for #LaTeX documents. Converting .tex/.pdf to .docx is not fun when MS Word does not understand vector graphics, tables or umlaut characters (e.g. äö).

On a related note, my final PhD article is submitted. Time to go full-blast on the synopsis.

LaTeX is far easier to write documents, in fact this is what puts me OFF undertaking Open University and other courses, where I would submit course work I can write science documents in LaTeX, includes formulae, tables and other formatting with ease.

Only for some reason the various faculties want everything in word format.

I can understand they want to use plagarism detection, but surely that is do-able with LaTeX. But at University level there has to flexibility.

Maybe it will change one day. We can only hope.
