I really need this software today to complete some college projects but cant get it to work. The problem lies in the system requirements section.

If anybody could tell me how to get

Working pdflatex, latex, dvipdf and Ghostscript (gs)


I would really appreciate it as the program wont run without these, whatever they are.

This is a freeware programme and i presume it works pretty well (if you can get it working) as its on the maths and science section of the Apple Website.

If anybody knows how to help i would be much obliged

Kindest Regards,

Stephen
 
If you can hack the download this 700mb install has all the latex/tex stuff you will ever need:

Otherwise you might be able to install those packages separately using i-installer
