This is a question Protest!

Sit-ins. Walk-outs. Smashing up the headquarters of a major political party. Chaining yourself to the railings outside your local sweet shop because they changed Marathons to Snickers. How have you stuck it to The Man?

Try using latex (pronounced la-tec).

It's a mathematical typesetting program. A lot easier to use than word for mathematical documents. If you have windows try miktex as the compiler and techniccenter as an editor. For macs I think texshop, and for linux use kile.

Just google them if interested. I would very much recommend it.

Latex is probably what the physicists want to use already.
What about asking if they'll accept PDF?

This, 100 times. Or more. Tex takes a bit of getting used to, but for pure type/equation-setting goodness it plain can't be beat.

It's very easy to learn

there's so much on the interwebs to help you. Such as the not so shoort guide to latex.
