I've thought about giving something like LyX or docbook like format a go at
work, but the problem is getting the output in a softcopy format that looks
good to print from Windows boxes.  postscript is great printing from linux
to a postscript printer, but most folks don't have that luxury.

I just gave ps2pdf a quick try, but I think it converted everything to
type-1 fonts, or some other nasty variety.  Any idea how I can get a good
looking pdf doc from postscript/dvi/other?  I'm currently running SuSE
6.1/6.3, if that helps.
