OK. Yesterday, I visited, probably for first time, Freshmeat and I subscribed.

Great! I will visit your site regularly.

I tried to export to TeX (my experience as TeX user is zero) and, then, I 
used pdflatex and I didn't like the result. I tried to convert a postscript 
generated by Texmacs to pdf using pstoedit. The file was more legible on 
screen than the generatd using ps2pdf. But it changed the size of many 
letters and had problems with special characters as á, ó or ñ.
