    Eh, depends. I once had a document with lots of tables. I pasted another table into this document. Suddenly all regular text became bold and vice versa. If I made anything bold or non-bold after this, all the tables moved to the top left corner of the first page, on top of each other. Word did some weird stuff sometimes. We eventually threw in the towel and used LaTeX.

      Latex is the way to go for long documents populated with tables and images

        I already knew that, but some of my teammates were a little scared of it and had to learn the hard way.
