Settings for TeXShop (and other Mac TeX-Editors)
The default TeX Settings for MacTeX should work in all editors as we don’t have a special installation any more.
TeXShop –> Preferences
There the “Engine” settings for the paths should as follows:
(pdf)TeX: /Library/TeX/texbin
Distiller (ghostscript): /usr/local/bin
Note: It’s no longer necessary to change the “Typesetting” preferences from “pdftex” to “TeX + DVI”.
Path settings for other Mac TeX-editors should be set accordingly:
- all TeX-related binaries (e.g. latex, pdflatex, etc.) can be found at: /Library/TeX/texbin
- all Ghostscript-related binaries (e.g. gs, ps2pdf) can be found at: /usr/local/bin
