Reminds me when I was looking for a job. Bashed out a snazzy looking CV in LaTeX, and with a bit of tweaking I had versions which looked near enough identical in plain text, HTML (XHTML Valid naturally) and PDF. Was quite proud of myself until I realised virtually all employers wanted Microsoft Word.

So, I pasted it into OpenOffice v0.0000001a, edited the formatting and the conversion was terrible. It made me so angry, words cannot describe. Cue lots of swearing and cycling to the library to use a Windows computer every time I made an edit.
