There is no WYSWYG program that can do everything you ask for in
technical word processing. The best hope for the future is some
vaporware from Mansfield Systems (but don't hold your breath).

An interesting possibility for your secretaries is to generate the
formulas with the Expressionist or the MathType. These applications
can generate TeX code, which can then be pasted into any TeX 
program.
