It suits students, researchers, publishers and other users who typeset LaTeX or TeX documents locally and want a comprehensive collection of packages, fonts and tools.\n\n## Main features\n- Install the full TeX Live distribution, including TeX, LaTeX and related engines and packages.\n- Typeset documents with engines such as pdfTeX, XeTeX and LuaTeX.\n- Use TeXShop for source editing and PDF preview, BibDesk for bibliographies and LaTeXiT for equations.\n- Manage TeX Live package updates and active distribution selection with TeX Live Utility.\n- Include Mac-specific documentation and configuration alongside the shared TeX Live tools.\n- Keep annual TeX Live installations in separate year directories when needed.\n\n## Install and start\nInstall this full Mac cask with `brew install --cask mactex`, or download the official notarized PKG and follow Apple's installer. This is a system-wide distribution installer, not simply a single app dragged into Applications; installation can require administrator authorization. Its large archive and installed package collection need substantial free disk space.\n\nAfter installation, open `\u002FApplications\u002FTeX\u002FREAD ME FIRST.pdf`. Launch TeXShop from `\u002FApplications\u002FTeX`, create or open a `.tex` document and choose the appropriate typesetting engine. Save and typeset a small sample to check the editor and distribution. BibDesk manages bibliography data; it does not replace the typesetting engine.\n\nFor command-line tools, restart your terminal window after the cask installation so the updated paths take effect. MacTeX's standard active command path is `\u002FLibrary\u002FTeX\u002Ftexbin`. If you keep multiple annual distributions, use TeX Live Utility's Configure > Change Default TeX Live Version to select the active one. A new annual installation can retain older distributions; account for the extra space and keep a stable toolchain when a project requires reproducible output.\n\n## Full MacTeX, TeX Live and smaller alternatives\nTeX Live is the underlying cross-platform distribution; MacTeX packages it for macOS with GUI applications and Mac configuration. The MacTeX PKG is not a Windows or Linux installer, even though TeX Live is available on those platforms through other distributions.\n\nThe full package includes TeXShop, LaTeXiT, BibDesk, TeX Live Utility and hintView. Current official GUI documentation says the bundled TeXShop 5.57 works on the supported systems; a separate TeXShop 5.58 Liquid Glass package is recommended for Tahoe users. Do not assume that separate package is already included in this dated cask.\n\nUpstream offers BasicTeX as a smaller distribution and separate GUI applications. The Homebrew `mactex-no-gui` cask is an alternative without the GUI collection. This cask conflicts with both `basictex` and `mactex-no-gui`; choose the appropriate cask instead of installing all three. Upstream's ability to retain multiple TeX distributions is distinct from these Homebrew conflict rules.\n\n## Ghostscript and this cask\nThe official March 24, 2026 MacTeX PKG updates Ghostscript to 10.07.0. However, this Homebrew cask deliberately deselects the PKG's bundled Ghostscript, libgs and mutool choices and declares the Homebrew `ghostscript` formula as a dependency. It selects the TeX Live and GUI components. Therefore, the full upstream installer contents and Homebrew installation choices are not identical; do not assume every optional upstream Ghostscript extra is installed by this cask.\n\nThe March 24 package removes the unsigned LuaMetaTeX executable to satisfy Apple's notarization requirements. LuaTeX remains. If you rely on ConTeXt\u002FLuaMetaTeX or specialized dvisvgm features, read the official current guidance rather than assuming every upstream engine and optional dependency is present.\n\n## Requirements, storage and updates\nMacTeX 2026 requires macOS 11 Big Sur or later and runs natively on Intel and Apple Silicon using universal binaries. Older annual MacTeX distributions and the separate Unix TeX Live installer have different requirements; those do not lower the requirement of this current MacTeX package.\n\nThe current `mactex-20260324.pkg` download is 6,865,013,189 bytes, confirmed with an HTTP HEAD request and matching this catalog. This is archive transfer size, not installed disk usage; allow additional space for extraction, the full distribution, projects and any retained annual installations. No universal RAM or exact installed-space requirement was verified. The full installed distribution can typeset local documents without a cloud account or online subscription. Downloads, package updates and any document-specific network resources need internet access.\n\nTeX Live Utility updates packages within the selected annual distribution; it is not the same as installing the next annual MacTeX distribution. Package and engine changes can affect output, so review updates and preserve an appropriate toolchain for ongoing work. Process only trusted document sources and review shell-escape requirements before enabling external command execution.\n\n## Cost and licenses\nMacTeX is available without fees for personal and professional use. No TUG membership, cloud login or paid account is required for ordinary local typesetting. Optional donations and memberships support the community. The distribution contains software from many authors, each with its own license; it is not covered by one blanket app license. Review component licenses before redistribution, especially when charging for a collection or bundling third-party software.\n\nSources: [Official MacTeX overview](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002F), [Current download and March 24 changes](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fmactex-download.html), [Package contents](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fwhatsinthepackage.html), [Cost and licensing](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Faboutmactex.html), [GUI programs](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fgui-link.html), [TeX Live guide](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Ftexlive\u002Fdoc\u002Ftexlive-en\u002Ftexlive-en.html).","Full TeX Live distribution with GUI applications","MacTeX TeXnical Working Group, TeX Users Group","MacTeX","e30af0640f51979a95b9f54084456d1e16749b79e12e65bdebd630fb2795ff1e",6865013189,"https:\u002F\u002Fmirror.ctan.org\u002Fsystems\u002Fmac\u002Fmactex\u002Fmactex-20260324.pkg","https:\u002F\u002Fformulae.brew.sh\u002Fcask\u002Fmactex","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.tug.org\u002Fmactex\u002F","brew install --cask mactex",{"d30":115,"d365":116,"d90":117},1419,50225,7376,"cask",{"bodyMarkdown":120,"brewCommittedAt":121,"hasNotes":122,"id":123,"isLatest":122,"isPrerelease":81,"machineTranslated":81,"publishedAt":124,"sections":125,"source":136,"sourceLocale":137,"summary":138,"title":139,"translation":140,"version":142},"## MacTeX 2026 — March 24 package\n\nRefreshes MacTeX 2026 with Ghostscript 10.07.0 and removes unsigned LuaMetaTeX for notarization; LuaTeX remains.\n\n### Repackaging\n\n- Updates the upstream PKG Ghostscript from 10.06.0 to 10.07.0.\n- Removes unsigned LuaMetaTeX to meet Apple notarization requirements.\n- Retains LuaTeX in the TeX Live distribution.\n\n### Distribution\n\n- Includes TeX Live 2026 and the Mac GUI application collection.\n\nSource: [Official release information](https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fmactex-download.html).

This is a system-wide distribution installer, not simply a single app dragged into Applications; installation can require administrator authorization. Its large archive and installed package collection need substantial free disk space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After installation, open \u003Ccode>\u002FApplications\u002FTeX\u002FREAD ME FIRST.pdf\u003C\u002Fcode>. Launch TeXShop from \u003Ccode>\u002FApplications\u002FTeX\u003C\u002Fcode>, create or open a \u003Ccode>.tex\u003C\u002Fcode> document and choose the appropriate typesetting engine. Save and typeset a small sample to check the editor and distribution. BibDesk manages bibliography data; it does not replace the typesetting engine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For command-line tools, restart your terminal window after the cask installation so the updated paths take effect. MacTeX's standard active command path is \u003Ccode>\u002FLibrary\u002FTeX\u002Ftexbin\u003C\u002Fcode>. If you keep multiple annual distributions, use TeX Live Utility's Configure > Change Default TeX Live Version to select the active one. A new annual installation can retain older distributions; account for the extra space and keep a stable toolchain when a project requires reproducible output.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3 class=\"on-md-heading-1\">Full MacTeX, TeX Live and smaller alternatives\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>TeX Live is the underlying cross-platform distribution; MacTeX packages it for macOS with GUI applications and Mac configuration. The MacTeX PKG is not a Windows or Linux installer, even though TeX Live is available on those platforms through other distributions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The full package includes TeXShop, LaTeXiT, BibDesk, TeX Live Utility and hintView. Current official GUI documentation says the bundled TeXShop 5.57 works on the supported systems; a separate TeXShop 5.58 Liquid Glass package is recommended for Tahoe users. Do not assume that separate package is already included in this dated cask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upstream offers BasicTeX as a smaller distribution and separate GUI applications. The Homebrew \u003Ccode>mactex-no-gui\u003C\u002Fcode> cask is an alternative without the GUI collection. This cask conflicts with both \u003Ccode>basictex\u003C\u002Fcode> and \u003Ccode>mactex-no-gui\u003C\u002Fcode>; choose the appropriate cask instead of installing all three. Upstream's ability to retain multiple TeX distributions is distinct from these Homebrew conflict rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3 class=\"on-md-heading-1\">Ghostscript and this cask\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>The official March 24, 2026 MacTeX PKG updates Ghostscript to 10.07.0. However, this Homebrew cask deliberately deselects the PKG's bundled Ghostscript, libgs and mutool choices and declares the Homebrew \u003Ccode>ghostscript\u003C\u002Fcode> formula as a dependency. It selects the TeX Live and GUI components. Therefore, the full upstream installer contents and Homebrew installation choices are not identical; do not assume every optional upstream Ghostscript extra is installed by this cask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The March 24 package removes the unsigned LuaMetaTeX executable to satisfy Apple's notarization requirements. LuaTeX remains. If you rely on ConTeXt\u002FLuaMetaTeX or specialized dvisvgm features, read the official current guidance rather than assuming every upstream engine and optional dependency is present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3 class=\"on-md-heading-1\">Requirements, storage and updates\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>MacTeX 2026 requires macOS 11 Big Sur or later and runs natively on Intel and Apple Silicon using universal binaries. Older annual MacTeX distributions and the separate Unix TeX Live installer have different requirements; those do not lower the requirement of this current MacTeX package.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current \u003Ccode>mactex-20260324.pkg\u003C\u002Fcode> download is 6,865,013,189 bytes, confirmed with an HTTP HEAD request and matching this catalog. This is archive transfer size, not installed disk usage; allow additional space for extraction, the full distribution, projects and any retained annual installations. No universal RAM or exact installed-space requirement was verified. The full installed distribution can typeset local documents without a cloud account or online subscription. Downloads, package updates and any document-specific network resources need internet access.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TeX Live Utility updates packages within the selected annual distribution; it is not the same as installing the next annual MacTeX distribution. Package and engine changes can affect output, so review updates and preserve an appropriate toolchain for ongoing work. Process only trusted document sources and review shell-escape requirements before enabling external command execution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3 class=\"on-md-heading-1\">Cost and licenses\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>MacTeX is available without fees for personal and professional use. No TUG membership, cloud login or paid account is required for ordinary local typesetting. Optional donations and memberships support the community. The distribution contains software from many authors, each with its own license; it is not covered by one blanket app license. Review component licenses before redistribution, especially when charging for a collection or bundling third-party software.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sources: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Official MacTeX overview\u003C\u002Fa>, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fmactex-download.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Current download and March 24 changes\u003C\u002Fa>, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fwhatsinthepackage.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Package contents\u003C\u002Fa>, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Faboutmactex.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cost and licensing\u003C\u002Fa>, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Fmactex\u002Fgui-link.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">GUI programs\u003C\u002Fa>, \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Ftug.org\u002Ftexlive\u002Fdoc\u002Ftexlive-en\u002Ftexlive-en.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TeX Live guide\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n"]
