NAME
       latex,  pdflatex,  xelatex,  lualatex,  dvilualatex, cslatex, pdfcslatex, platex, uplatex,
       lamed - structured text formatting and typesetting

SYNOPSIS
       latex [first-line]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page is a mere skeleton.

       The LaTeX language is described in the book LaTeX - A Document Preparation System.   LaTeX
       is a TeX macro package, not a modification to the TeX source program, so all the capabili-
       ties described in tex(1) are present.

       The LaTeX macros encourage writers to think about the content of their  documents,  rather
       than  the  form.   The ideal, very difficult to realize, is to have no formatting commands
       (like ``switch to italic'' or ``skip 2 picas'') in the document at  all;  instead,  every-
       thing is done by specific markup instructions: ``emphasize'', ``start a section''.

       The primary source of documentation for LaTeX is the LaTeX manual referenced below.

       lualatex, pdflatex, pdfcslatex, xelatex are LaTeX formats based on the respective engines.
       All output PDF by default.
       platex, uplatex are Japanese LaTeX formats based on e-pTeX and e-upTeX (DVI output).
       lamed is the Aleph-based LaTeX format (DVI output).
       dvilualatex is LuaTeX-based and outputs DVI.
       cslatex is csTeX-based (primitives integrated into pdfTeX) and outputs DVI.

       On some systems latex209 and slitex may still be available for  compatibility  with  older
       versions of LaTeX.  These should not be used for new texts.
