Workflow Design Thoughts: How to create lecture notes, homework examples or book figures easily.

06 Apr 2009 (Updated 25 Aug 2009)

A style guide on how to create published figures for books and lecture notes. M-Files included

File Information
Description	This submission is a style guide for how to setup directories and where to get help on common questions when creating book figures. I created these files and documentation to help out a friend who is creating a book. I thought others may want to take a look at this if you are starting a new book project. I created a series of helper files to help with printing figures for his book and printing to HTML or PowerPoint for lecture notes. The documentation also points you to appropriate places in The MathWorks documentation for further reading.
