This works +with DVI files postprocessed by either Dvips and Ghostscript or +dvipng, but it also works when you are using PDFTeX for generating PDF +files. + +Current uses of the package include the preview-latex package for +WYSIWYG functionality in the AUCTeX editing environment, generation of +previews in LyX, as part of the operation of the ps4pdf and pst-pdf +packages, the tbook XML system and some other tools. + +Availability +------------ + +The preview package is being developed along and distributed with +AUCTeX. It can therefore be obtained as part of AUCTeX distribution +files available at or its +mirror at . CTAN also provides a standalone +version at .
