My addendum for people-writers:
pybliographer -- a very nice tool to manage bibliographies - supports
many formats, querying medline etc.
pyblink -- not available in debian but I have it packaged:
deb http://www.onerussian.com/debian/ ./
deb-src http://www.onerussian.com/debian/ ./
it is for those who have to struggle in OO and write anything which
includes bibliographies. pyblink would help you to interact OO with
pybliographic and have references done in easier way.
scribus -- lets you "edit" pdf or ps files thus it makes possible to
rip EPS/PS figures from the articles of others if you don't have time to
wait until the author emails you the proper one
impose+ -- (the one I packaged :-)) - it is an alternative to mpage
whenever you want to print an article two-fold. Its advantage - it finds
bbox nicely so there usually will be less of white space, thus text will
be more readable
Also there is a script http://www.onerussian.com/debian/draftpaper.sh
which lets me given any file/url to create and see twofold printout in
xpdf and send it to print if I decide that it looks ok
Hope it will be of help to someone
