 During the installation it will possibly complain that 'mactex is from an unidentified developer', and refuse to continue. In that case, do a Ctrl-click on the file, and select 'open'. It will again complain about 'unidentified developer', but in this case allow you to continue anyway.

LaTeX setup for mac

If you are installing LaTeX on a mac, and want to use department-specific styles and fonts, follow these steps:

  • Install the latest TeXLive available through the MacTeX distribution.
    During the installation it will possibly complain that 'mactex is from an unidentified developer', and refuse to continue. In that case, do a Ctrl-click on the file, and select 'open'. It will again complain about 'unidentified developer', but in this case allow you to continue anyway.

  • Execute
    • sudo curl -o /usr/local/bin/update-texmf-local http://dist.control.lth.se/public/Texlive/texmf-local/scripts/update-texmf-local
      
      sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/update-texmf-local
      
      sudo update-texmf-local

Done.
