<p>The typesetting program called TeX is used to format a Texinfo
document for printable output. TeX is a very powerful typesetting
program and, when used correctly, does an exceptionally good job.
</p>
<p>See <a href="Obtaining-TeX.html">Obtaining TeX</a>, for information on how to obtain TeX. It
is not included in the Texinfo package, being a vast suite of software
in itself.
