2.1.2 Use and documentation notes

• MiKTeX runs in the MSDOS-like Command Prompt window, but you can preview .dvi files with Yap by clicking on them in an Explorer file management window.

• Yap can print from .dvi directly to Postscript printers but the printout is slow, and does not include page numbering. It is better to run dvips on the .dvi file and then print the resulting .ps file.

• The MiKTeX documentation by Christian Schenk is well written and is available in HTML or PDF formats. There are also a FAQ (frequently asked questions list) and a ``tips and tricks'' document.

• An archived email discussion list and forum is available on the WWW.
