Hi Everyone,

I am a structural engineer who love to work on latex. I want to start with PSTricks on my ubuntu machine.
Please help me to install PSTricks on ubuntu also how can I learn PSTricks.

Thanks

Hi ssvirdi,

welcome to the board!
On Ubuntu install the package texlive-pstricks and perhaps texlive-pstricks-doc. You could do it by Synaptic or by the command

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install texlive-pstricks

Have a look at the PSTricks web site to get information, documentation, tutorials, there's also a lot of examples.

Take a look at the powerdot class. All you need to know is described in the manual. Joseph already gave a very useful link to an example gallery for all PSTricks related packages. All packages come with manuals which can be found on CTAN.


Best regard and welcome to the board
