I've been given permission to put up a poster in the campus writing center.
The primary users of this writing center are from the humanities—those students who need to write rather long papers on a regular basis.
Given that it is strictly non-technical writing, what features of (La)TeX systems would draw such a user, and how should I advertise these strengths on a small poster or pamphlet?

not sure how to present these in a poster, but here are some features of latex that should be especially attracive to users in the humanities:
eledmac
packagememoir
that are more in keeping with humanities work and "fine publishing" than the "usual" technical-oriented stylessome of these capabilities won't be appreciated even for long papers, but as soon as one is ready to tackle a dissertation or a book, there's really nothing new to learn if familiarity with the system has been nurtured through practice with shorter projects.
