Overview
Texpad for Mac is a native macOS app tool with efficient LaTeX environment, feature-laden, not feature-cluttered.
Features and Highlights
PROJECTS OF ALL SIZES
Simply open your root* .tex file and let Texpad load your full project, including sub-files, bibliographies and stylesheets therein.
GLOBAL SEARCH
The Global Search and Replace feature presents all instances of your search text in the source that you can readily jump to and forth between. This is particularly useful for large, multi-file projects such as theses, lecture notes and books.
TEMPLATES
Open your recent documents straight from the Tex pad Organiser window or create new ones from standard and custom templates.
TYPESETTING
One of Texpad's design principles has been to take the pain out of interacting with your LaTeX distribution. LaTeX, pdfLaTeX, Ghostscript, XeLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, pLaTeX all work with no configuration.
INTEGRATED PDF VIEWER
Quickly switch to PDF after typesetting lends to a smooth workflow, where the editor and the output work in tandem.
CLEAN WORKSPACE
It keeps your workspace uncluttered by hiding the intermediate files and allows setting various LaTeX and BibTeX options, all through a simple settings interface.
AUTO-COMPLETE
Use the magic of auto-complete to write faster and with fewer LaTeX errors. It autocompletes all common TeX commands and autofills \ref and \cite commands with the labels and cite keys defined elsewhere in your document.
CUSTOM TYPESETTING
.tpbuild scripts let you cater for your own special typesetting needs. It ships with a few out-of-the-box (Sweave, ePub publishing, Plain TeX) and you may add your own.
DOCUMENT OUTLINE
Outline view makes the app perfect for large documents. When you open a LaTeX file in Texpad for macOS, it will scan through to find document sections across all your files and list them in a table so you can jump to a section quickly.
TROUBLESHOOTING LATEX ERRORS MADE EASY
The tool simplifies LaTeX's cryptic error logs by presenting a simple, navigable list of errors that you can jump to, fix, and carry on writing.
MULTIPLE LATEX DISTRIBUTIONS
Managing and upgrading LaTeX distributions is often not without pain. Now with the app switching between multiple distributions is as easy as selecting one from the dropdown list in Preferences.
TODOS
The outline also lists any TODOs you've entered in the code as reminders, providing quick and easy access to them.
LATEX/PDF SYNCHRONISATION
Never lose track of where you are in a large project by synchronizing between the document outline, the editor and the PDF viewer.
BEAUTIFUL, NATIVE UI
It designed the UI to meet high expectations of Mac users. Starting from the Welcome window itself, it's all streamlined, distraction-free and automates common tasks accompanied by hotkeys for fast access.
MULTI-LINGUAL INTERFACE
Thanks to the wonderful help of the app users, The program is now localized into languages other than English, with more languages being added. "This is just the beginning, and soon we'll be adding more languages".
SNIPPETS - LATEX CODE BLOCKS
Snippets are little pieces of LaTeX code designed to aid fast editing of documents. In a typical Tex pad style, of course, they interact smoothly with the editor via hotkeys and are aware of any text that's currently selected.
MARKDOWN SUPPORT
Markdown is treated at equal footing as LaTeX, with PDF output as well as document outline.
Note: 14 days trial version. Requires 64-bit processor.
