Sure, if you want to use plain TeX, and not LaTeX. To get a really thorough grounding, you can read Donald Knuth's TexBook. I'm sure there are also briefer guides online.
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 9y agoI'm just wondering, and I don't really have an opinion.
- mturmon 9y agoIf you are an ordinary producer of documents (plain text, articles,tech reports, letters, mathematical documents, etc.) you should start with LaTeX, not TeX. It is uncommon to write in plain TeX and this has been so for many years. In practice, you will use mostly LaTeX constructs, and the simplest TeX ones, which the LaTeX guide would include.
