MiKTeX

MiKTeX is a typesetting structure for Microsoft Windows that is created by Christian Schenk. It consists of an execution of TeX and a set of related programs, and gives the tools needed to prepare documents using the TeX/LaTeX markup language, as well a simple tex editor, named TeXworks. It features easy installation, having a complete set of additions (programs, styles, fonts…) are available to help users typeset their documents, it has an integrated package manager installs missing components from the Internet, if required; having an Update Wizard helps users to keep its system up-to-date by installing the latest package updates, it has a fast previewer, having well maintained package repository and it is an open source, meaning that users are welcome to redistribute MiKTeX under certain conditions. The name derives from Christian Schenk's log-in, “MiK for Micro-Kid”. It can update itself by downloading new versions of earlier installed components and packages, and it has an easy installation process. Furthermore, it gives the users the option whether they wish to download any packages that have not yet been installed but are demanded by the current document. Present version of MiKTeX is 2.9 and is available at the MiKTeX homepage. Since version 2.7, MiKTeX has maintained for XeTeX, MetaPost and pdfTeX and compatibility with Windows 7; and is presently being ported to GNU/Linux, with a beta version being available for testing.
