LaTeX(2e) example

Here's a little snippet of code to try out. If it works, your Textures is doing pretty well, and your installation is probably fine for the most part.

  1. Setup: Make a new document (Choose "New" from the file menu). Save it as "latextest" on your desktop.
  2. Under the typeset menu, pick "LaTeX".
  3. Paste the following code into the "latextest" window:
     
    \documentclass{article}
    \begin{document}
    \section{Introduction}
    Hello, this is \LaTeX .
    \end{document}
  4. A typeset window will come into view somewhere on your screen. You can click into it to see it, or choose "latextest typeset" from the Windows menu.

You should see the sample text from the example. It should look like this.

If it didn't work you may need installation help. If it crashes, you may need crash help. If it works, makes a typeset window, but looks bad, you may need fonts help.
