I am a PhD student in ecology. Statistical challenges and visual presentation of complex data are among my favorite professional interests. R is my favorite program.

PS. If you wonder about my weird name or that picture: I am a bassist in a humoristic amateur metal band. Largh is my stage name referring to my large instrument.

Anyway making these commands a bit shorter? \SI{}{\micro\metre} is awfully long for just writing µm

Thanks for a nice question! Please update siunitx as the right answer (I went to the trap of trying SIunits at first, because I was impatient to read the entire tread).

Ops, I placed it inside \it{}. That's why it didn't work. Thanks for help!

Thanks! It seems not to work with \def, though. If I define \def\GM{{\it Gadus morhua\xspace}}, I'll get *Gadus morhua*is a fish without space

comment How to convert a scientific manuscript to MS Word for a coauthor review
First: I tried Mendeley and it seems to be a really nice program. I am very thankful that you linked it here, since I didn't know about it. Thanks! Then: If some of the coauthors are unwilling to use Adobe Acrobat Pro or other pdf readers capable for annotations, why should they use Mendeley? To me it seems the same than any other program. Some of the coauthors want to delete text in their text processor and add their own stuff. This is what makes them to feel that they have the control over the document, I guess...

I am sorry, if I haven't been clear enough. The idea is just to produce a doc file for coauthors, so that they can use their track changes on it. There is no need to convert these docs back to LaTeX, since it's easier to edit text in LaTeX. Those colors, lines and comments makes me dizzy.

comment How to convert a scientific manuscript to MS Word for a coauthor review
Well, I don't agree with you that this question has exactly the same content than the earlier topic. I believe that this example with the typical features for a manuscript can be converted to a doc with a right kind of approach. If someone manages to figure out that approach for the example above, please send it to me as an email / post it to the other thread that is open.

My best bet so far is to use Adobe Acrobat X Pro and convert the pdf to doc. This reproduces all the features (except the equation, which comes but not perfectly), but makes the font look weird. It doesn't help to change the font in Word. It remains uneven for some reason.
