I would highly recommend org-mode for writing documents and papers. I'm an academic, and have been using org-mode for the last 4 years as part of the paper writing process. One of the best features of this pipeline is the fact that I can write a large chunk of the document whilst conducting research. I can jot down notes, caveats, schedule TODO items etc. and just tag the bits I want for my own reference as 'noexport', so that they don't make it into the exported tex or pdf document. Another great feature is that I can embed code for producing tables/figures all within the document and specify whether I want the code or result or both to be included. Finally, once I am happy I have most of the document the way I want it, I export to tex to deal with the final tweaks to finesse things -- spacing for the entire document, fine-grained adjustment of figure formatting. This ensures that I have all the information that went into constructing the document and allows me to deal with various venue-specific constraints like submitting a source archive, or pdf as necessary.
