How to Obtain TeX

TeX is freely redistributable. You can obtain TeX for Unix systems via anonymous ftp or on physical media. The core material consists of the Web2c TeX distribution (http://tug.org/web2c).

Instructions for retrieval by anonymous ftp and information on other available distributions:

ftp://tug.org/tex/unixtex.ftp

The Free Software Foundation provides a core distribution on its Source Code CD-ROM suitable for printing Texinfo manuals; the University of Washington maintains and supports a tape distribution; the TeX Users Group co-sponsors a complete CD-ROM TeX distribution.

Many other TeX distributions are available; see http://tug.org/.
