Who developed it ?

It was dicovered by Donald Knuth.
Professor of “The Art of Computer
Programming” at Stanford University.
He is a father of algorithm analysis.


Story behind it ?

When Donald Ervin Knuth was working on his book
“The Art of Programming” was not happy with the
type-setting for his book. So he created a type-setting
system that would let him concentrate on the content of
the book rather than getting the type-setting software
distracting and getting him worried about formatting
the output. Thats why He designed TEX.

A
Printing industry of LTEX

Shiping industry named ‘River Valley’ in kerala.
Founded by CV Radhakrishnan.
Aim of industry
For over twenty years they have
worked to perfect our text processing
system
They get the dirty documents(made
in Ms oﬃce or in any other
processors) and convert into
beautiful documents.


In the end I would like to say:

“If you care about creating polished and stylish documents,
and if you have a sense of aesthetics, try LaTeX! Believe me,
you’ll fall in love with it and use it for the rest of your life!”
