Correct.  TeX is only the best tool among those typesetting
professionals who typeset mathematics.  Most typesetting professionals
hate to do mathematics.

Get a math research journal from the library.  Any one. Read the
"instructions for authors" contained there.  It will say that
manuscripts must be in Latex.  A few journals may grudgingly also
accept Microsoft Word.  That's it.
