</IsmellaNEEEEEEEEEERD>this may sound silly but its very important if you want to buy either medical gloves or condoms, don't want a rash there!
Zimmie@organ-harvest-coordinator @Doveux That’s for latex the material. The flyer instead uses the logotype for the LaTeX project, which is a software system for typesetting documents. It’s common in academic publishing because it allows good layout of complex math, and also of multiple mixed languages (e.g, inserting a Devanagari passage in an otherwise English paragraph).

To be fair this is my first time hearing about it, so maybe it's just my school not using / mentioning it. Could be an intentional refrence though if that is the case for schools / universities in other places!
@Doomed_Daniel @organ-harvest-coordinator @Doveux I doubt it. LaTeX isn’t as common in chemistry or med school. Those make more use of chemical drawing software to create an image, which then goes in a WYSIWYG word processor.
Plus, flyers like this are often put together by a pharmacy tech or office manager.
