TeX is the underlying typesetting system created by Donald Knuth that LaTeX and other macro packages build upon. Stencila supports the .tex file extension for documents that use TeX conventions.

In practice, most TeX files use LaTeX macros. The distinction in Stencila is primarily about file extension: .tex files are handled identically to LaTeX files by the same codec.

Use the .tex file extension, or the --to tex or --from tex options, when converting to/from TeX e.g.

TeX support is provided by the same Rust crate as LaTeX: codec-latex. See the LaTeX documentation for full implementation details.
