No option here, I use the scanner located in the computer lab on campus. > If you are trying to create a math paper that needs 'complex math > symbols', they you should consider (latex,tetex,texlive). You can also > use tex to produce pdf files and include graphics files in those. > Yes, I use latex quite often but I did not want to spend a lot of time typing up all those equations and plots.
