*Subject : PD AMIGA TeX
*From : Konrad Neuwirth (A4422DAE@AWIUNI11.BITNET)

In one of the last digests, we receive on bitnet here, there was a discussion
on amiga TeX in PD. There is not a full TeX on the Ami PD, but there is a
demo version of the commercial one on FISH DISK 83. I happen to have bought a
copy of the PD version, but my disk is a bad copy, so i have to go to the
dealer again next week. But from what i've read about it, it can do all
TeX commands, but it can only handle small files, and the Previewer is only
capable of handling 8 pages. But there is one wonderful thing on fishdisk
137 which is a thing called TeXF, and it can convert the TeX PK files into
Amiga fonts (maybe you dont know it but TeX's family of CM fonts is one of
the most beautiful there is, at least I think so) So, well ....
