LaTeX

මුලින්ම මෙන්න මේ සබැදියට ගිහින් basic-miktex බාගතකරගෙන ඉන්ස්ටෝල් කරගන්න, එහිදි package install කියන තැන ask me දෙන්න එපා, on the fly කියල ටික් එක දෙන්න.

ඉන්පසු මෙන්න මේකත්(texmaker) install කරගෙන කරගන්න. පහත ලින්ක් එක වැඩ නැති උනොත් ගූගල් සර්ච් කරල texmaker ගන්න.

ඉන්පසු texmaker open කර Option ->configure TeXMaker->
Commands යටතේ Embed වෙත ටික් කරන්න.
Quick build යටතේ PDFLAteX +view PDF

දමා save කරන්න.







ඔනෑතරම් templates සර්ච් කර ලබාගන්න, මෙහිදී ප්‍රොජෙcට් එකකට ෆයිල් 5ක් අඩංගුවේ. යම් හෙයකින් බාගත කල .tex ෆයිල් එක ඔපන් කරද්දී package නොමැති බව පවසාවි. එවිට MikTex->Maintains->package Manager වෙත ගොස් අදාල package file name එක filter වෙත යොදා search කර install කරගන්න.

LaTeX ඉගෙන ගන්න පහත වෙබ් පිටුව භාවිත කරන්න.
