Installing Latexian is as simple as a drag and drop. Just follow these steps:
  • Download Latexian from the Taco Software website. The file that you download will be called Latexian.zip.
  • Once the download is complete, double-click the Latexian.zip file to decompress it. After decompression, a folder will appear that is named Latexian.
  • Within the Latexian folder, you will find the application. Drag it to your Applications folder.
