TeX archives

The Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN) is a set of mirrored FTP sites providing access to as much TeX-related software as possible.

The next list includes CTAN mirror sites or related items. It is weighted towards North American resources; see the CTAN sites themselves for more complete lists of mirrors.

The sites below are also important TeX resources. labrea.stanford.edu is the definitive repository of the basic TeX sources. The American Mathematical Society is responsible for AMSTeX and AMSLaTeX, as well as a large number of fonts. The MIT list of macros is useful for finding macros and styles for electrosubmissions to publishers or for TeXing preprints from other sites (note that this is a very large file and that you may want to use the search facilities of your Web reader or editor to find what you need within it). The Universities of Utah and Washington have been important TeX sites for a number of years.

TeX documentation

The CTAN archives include a lot of documentation in various formats and languages.

The University of Pennsylvania has a nice TeX page.

Norm Walsh of O'Reilly and Associates offers some resources on TeX and fonts at http://www.ora.com/homepages/jasper/.

A few words from the founder conclude the TeX list:
