## My interest in LaTeX

I'm a designer by nature. One of the earliest jobs I had was working for a printer in college who reprinted old books and other, mostly religious, publications from the late 19th century. What caught my eye was how beautifully they were laid out. Paper and ink (and therefore *space*) were at a premium, so they had to make the most of these resources.

And they did a wonderful job. I printed thousands of copies of page after page of densely typset text, and yet it was all readable, and well organized.
