I am not the strongest species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change. You cannot teach me anything, but you can stimulate me to think! I am interested in almost everything. Consistency, optimization, best-practice, and perfection are always my first priority in mind! Therefore by my questions and answers you will recognize me.

I prefer to offer bounties rather than collect & save reputation unused because spending money for my (sometimes your) pleasure is more meaningful than saving money in the bank and abandoning it unused.

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{graphicx,xcolor}
\begin{document}
\makebox[0pt][l]{\scalebox{1}[-1]{\textcolor{red}{PSTricks\textsuperscript{\textregistered}}}}PSTricks\textsuperscript{\textregistered}%
\end{document}

"If you're an underdog, mentally disabled, physically disabled, if you don't fit in, if you're not as pretty as the others, you can still be a hero, read TEXBook!"

"Motivation is not enough. If you have an idiot & you motivate him, now you have a motivated idiot."

Learning (La)TeX, PSTricks, & PGF/TikZ is similar to learning how to swim or drive a car. You don’t get the full benefit by watching someone else do it. Your own fingers must get involved.

Best practices

  1. Execute pdflatex \input{filename} instead of pdflatex filename.
  2. Don't specify the file extension in \includegraphics.
  3. Divide your project into a main & smaller input files & compile the main with pdflatex.
  4. Put each code snippet 4 either drawing a diagram or making a table into a standalone input file & compile it to produce a PDF.
  5. Define global macros 4 often-used materials, put them into a separate package thereby changing the macros in one place will effect the whole document.
  6. Remove unnecessary packages.
  7. Don't mix different series, families, font size, & shapes, ESPECIALLY IN ONE SENTENCE.
  8. Never put a blank space after/before a left/right parenthesis.
  9. Apply it.
