And yes, I don't build it from source because pkg_add -r is so much comfortable. There are some tools that are a good "put aside" for teTeX, such as xpdf (which brings also pdftotext), and gv, dvitty, xdvi. > Suggestion: try teTeX. If you encounter problems, then install TeXLive. It would be nice to hear what - in such a case - has been the problem with teTeX that TeXLive then solved. As I said, I never found myself in such a situation, and I'm using LaTeX for nearly everything. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
