Abstract

LATEX is a free and open source documentation software (document markup language text processing system) used for preparing impressive and highly structured documents. LATEX is becoming the standard" text processor for publications in science, engineering, and mathematics. Instead of wasting lot of time in formatting user can focus on contents and logical ideas. To learn LATEX through examples is the easiest way for many people. The objective of this paper is to give overview of LATEX so one can use it without getting into much detail, and can learn to use LATEX quickly and easily.
