Re: [suse-programming-e] Printing LaTex file with kile

I am absolutely new in LaTex. I am trying kile to make me easier learning LaTex.

Now I want to print it, but I don't know how.

I presume you want to print the formatted letter, not the latex source. 'latex file.tex' will produce a dvi file which can be converted to whatever final format you want (e.g., Postscript, PDF, ascii, etc). To turn the dvi file into postscript, dvips file.dvi If you want a PDF, you'll probably get better results by using pdflatex instead of latex as above.

What is "DVI"? Is it LaTex file?
