  • Travels in TEX Land: Choosing a TEX Environment for Windows
    The PracTEX Journal TPJ 2005 No 02, 2005-04-15 Rev. 2005-04-17 Travels in TEX Land: Choosing a TEX Environment for Windows David Walden The author of this column wanders through world of TEX, as a non-expert, reporting what he observes and learns, which hopefully will be interesting to other non-expert users of TEX. 1 Introduction This column recounts my experiences looking at and thinking about different ways TEX is set up for users to go through the document-composition to type- setting cycle (input and edit, compile, and view or print). First, I’ll describe my own experience randomly trying various TEX environments. I suspect that some other users have had a similar introduction to TEX; and perhaps other users have just used the environment that was available at their workplace or school. Then I’ll consider some categories for thinking about options in TEX setups. Last, I’ll suggest some follow-on steps. Since I use Microsoft Windows as my computer operating system, this note focuses on environments that are available for Windows.1 2 My random path to choosing a TEX environment 2 I started using TEX in the late 1990s. 1But see my offer in Section 4. 2 While I started using TEX, I switched from TEX to using LATEX as soon as I discovered LATEX existed. Since both TEX and LATEX are operated in the same way, I’ll mostly refer to TEX in this note, since that is the more basic system. c 2005 David C. Walden I don’t quite remember my first setup for trying TEX.

  • About Basictex-2021
    About BasicTeX-2021 Richard Koch January 2, 2021 1 Introduction Most TeX distributions for Mac OS X are based on TeX Live, the reference edition of TeX produced by TeX User Groups across the world. Among these is MacTeX, which installs the full TeX Live as well as front ends, Ghostscript, and other utilities | everything needed to use TeX on the Mac. To obtain it, go to http://tug.org/mactex. 2 Basic TeX BasicTeX (92 MB) is an installation package for Mac OS X based on TeX Live 2021. Unlike MacTeX, this package is deliberately small. Yet it contains all of the standard tools needed to write TeX documents, including TeX, LaTeX, pdfTeX, MetaFont, dvips, MetaPost, and XeTeX. It would be dangerous to construct a new distribution by going directly to CTAN or the Web and collecting useful style files, fonts and so forth. Such a distribution would run into support issues as the creators move on to other projects. Luckily, the TeX Live install script has its own notion of \installation packages" and collections of such packages to make \installation schemes." BasicTeX is constructed by running the TeX Live install script and choosing the \small" scheme. Thus it is a subset of the full TeX Live with exactly the TeX Live directory structure and configuration scripts. Moreover, BasicTeX contains tlmgr, the TeX Live Manager software introduced in TeX Live 2008, which can install additional packages over the network. So it will be easy for users to add missing packages if needed. Since it is important that the install package come directly from the standard TeX Live distribution, I'm going to explain exactly how I installed TeX to produce the install package.

  • The Arabi System — TEX Writes in Arabic and Farsi
    The Arabi system | ] ¨r` [ A\ TEX writes in Arabic and Farsi Youssef Jabri Ecole´ Nationale des Sciences Appliqu´ees, Oujda, Morocco yjabri (at) ensa dot univ-oujda dot ac dot ma Abstract In this paper, we will present a newly arrived package on CTAN that provides Arabic script support for TEX without the need for an external pre-processor. The Arabi package adds one of the last major multilingual typesetting capabilities to Babel by adding support for the Arabic ¨r and Farsi ¨FCA languages. Other languages using the Arabic script should also be more or less easily imple- mentable. Arabi comes with many good quality free fonts, Arabic and Farsi, and may also use commercial fonts. It supports many 8-bit input encodings (namely, CP-1256, ISO-8859-6 and Unicode UTF-8) and can typeset classical Arabic poetry. The package is distributed under the LATEX Project Public License (LPPL), and has the LPPL maintenance status \author-maintained". It can be used freely (including commercially) to produce beautiful texts that mix Arabic, Farsi and Latin (or other) characters.

Using XƎTEX, it is possible to typeset scripts of any languages whose glyphs are contained in the font in use, without the help of any extra packages, such as CJK2. However, XƎTEX itself does not solve all the problems. Some de- tails in Chinese typesetting have not been dealt with by XƎTEX, such as the automatic font switch between Chinese and Western characters, the skip adjustment of fullwidth punctuations, the automatic skip in- sertion between Chinese and Western characters or math formulas, etc. To meet the need of easy and high quality typesetting of Chinese documents using XƎTEX, the package zhspacing is coded, utilizing the new primitive of \XeTeXinterchartoks provided in XƎTEX ver- sion 0.997.

  • Latex on Macintosh
    LaTeX on Macintosh Installing MacTeX and using TeXShop, as described on the main LaTeX page, is enough to get you started using LaTeX on a Mac. This page provides further information for experienced users. Tips for using TeXShop Forward and Inverse Search If you are working on a long document, forward and inverse searching make editing much easier. • Forward search means jumping from a point in your LaTeX source file to the corresponding line in the pdf output file. • Inverse search means jumping from a line in the pdf file back to the corresponding point in the source file. In TeXShop, forward and inverse search are easy. To do a forward search, right-click on text in the source window and choose the option "Sync". (Shortcut: Cmd-Click). Similarly, to do an inverse search, right-click in the output window and choose "Sync". Spell-checking TeXShop does spell-checking using Apple's built in dictionaries, but the results aren't ideal, since TeXShop will mark most LaTeX commands as misspellings, and this will distract you from the real misspellings in your document. Below are two ways around this problem. • Use the spell-checking program Excalibur which is included with MacTeX (in the folder / Applications/TeX). Before you start spell-checking with Excalibur, open its Preferences, and in the LaTeX section, turn on "LaTeX command parsing". Then, Excalibur will ignore LaTeX commands when spell-checking. • Install CocoAspell (already installed in the Math Lab), then go to System Preferences, and open the Spelling preference pane. Choose the last dictionary in the list (the third one labeled "English (United States)"), and check the box for "TeX/LaTeX filtering".
