3.5. TeX and LaTeX

LyX is a LaTeX front end. It was primarily designed with TeX and LaTeX in mind. It provides a more or less WYSIWYG environment for TeX/LaTeX. Further, since we will use the TeX format to create PDF documents through pdfjadetex, we will need as much TeX related machinery as we can get. This practically means that you should install all the TeX and LaTeX packages that come with your didtribution. For example:

• te_etex-1.0.7-319

• texinfo-4.0-268

• tetex-1.0.7-319

• te_latex-1.0.7-319

• te_pdf-1.0.7-476

• db2latex-0.5.1-15
