Hi all,

What fast but functional document editor do you recommend? I would like to add custom fonts and do some page layout work, but otherwise nothing too fancy.

Suggestions?

    Moving this to a top-level comment.

    Overleaf is fantastic, as long as you are okay with non-WYSIWYG document editing and learning some LaTeX.

    Typst is also worth looking at, as a similar concept. It uses a very different language than LaTeX, but feels more in touch with modern sensibilities.

      i find the latex fonts weird to deal with. for me it is more a thing of setting up your template the way you want it and keep sailing with that.

        I find them okay, but I am much more concerned with consistent fonts than with a variety of decorative fonts.

        The default fonts feel very old-fashioned though.
