Macro for TeXLive and PCTeX ??

Post by AliceWonderMisc »

High odd question - and I'm sure it's been asked before but I can't find it.

We have the \TeX{} and \LaTeX{} macros.

In book I am working on, it is open source book released under FDL but I mention the FDL doesn't cover fonts used in the printing of the content, so printing the PDF or photocopying the book *may* violate font license.

I mention that it uses math fonts from PCTeX but that you can build a version of the book with completely free fonts using TeXLive avoiding the font license issue.

I'd like a \PCTeX{} macro that is like PC\TeX{} but with the "PC" using an aesthetically similar font to the Tau Epsolon Chi and same with \TeX{}Live and the Live part.

I'm guessing such macros have been written and shared, I just can't find them.

Maybe there is even an existing package that already defines macros for all the various vendors that use TeX in their name?
