Why convert XUL to TEX?

Choose TEX as target when the destination workflow expects source for LaTeX or TeX-based publishing rather than a finished office document.

Use TEX when structured source and compile-time publishing matter more than immediate WYSIWYG editing.

After conversion, review these destination checks: Open converted output in TeX engines and verify behavior on real samples; Compare output against the expected depends quality profile; Steeper learning curve than mainstream office formats.
