What is TeX Live?

TeX Live is listed in our database as a program that opens or converts the file formats shown on this page. It runs on Linux. It is published by TeX user groups. The formats it works with include .STY, .TEX, .LTX, .PK and .AUX.

You can get the official version from the developer's website (www.tug.org); we do not host the installer and only point you to the original source. A detailed, hand-checked description of TeX Live is on the way; for now the information here comes straight from our database.
