<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Fine, understood Thomas. I did not
think that it was likely to be directly relevant, but nonetheless
thought it worth mentioning that Excel and TeX can work
synergistically together.<br>

interesting suggestion, but in my case, the people writing
the documents are all well versed in LaTeX. It’s only at the
review stage where things start to get problematic. Although
commenting on pdf files works, some prefer to be able to
directly edit the original to add their corrections
suggestions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

you are describing here seems to be a good solution for the
input stage of the document, but I’m looking to solve
problems more at the output stage.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Thomas, but a question/suggestion — might your non-TeXxie
collaborators feel more comfortable working in Excel ? If so,
then
<span style="color:#1F497D">></span>you might consider
accepting Excel as input which can then be directly processed
by TeX, as I did (for example) when producing the
