1. install miktex [install packages on demand]
2. set up paths for the bin directory for miktex
3. use notepad++ for editing simple.tex [google it]
4. go to command prompt, type

pdflatex simple
[note, no file extension]

see that there are no errors. Ignore warnings

view simple.pdf in a pdf viewer. [sumatraPDF is a nice one, refreshes automatically. Adobe is not]

How to make a Website?

[This is one of the most asked questions, so I figured it will serve as a nice first question post]

Questions?

Since Blogger does not allow "pages" to accept comments, I created this blog post.

It will serve as a place where you can post questions. Please post your question as a comment here, and I will get an email from the system.

Alternatively, you can email your questions to animesh @ gmail.com.

Thanks,
