On the X-window-system the most popular is xdvi. To print a dvifile you can convert it to postscript using e.g. dvips. TeX newsgroup: comp.text.tex Maybe it would be more useful, if you go to the local system administrator. If you are that person, you could get a LaTeX-distribution like teTeX (available for unix-systems) or emTeX (for DOS and OS2) from a CTAN server (e.g. ftp.dante.de) and install it. With these distribution comes everything: tex, latex, metafont, previewer, printer driver, dvi->ps converter. -- Rainer Dorsch Ames Laboratory, Iowa State University of Science and Technology phone: (515) 294 9925 (work) (515) 296 3766 (home) e-mail: dorsch@aztec.fi.ameslab.gov address: Buchanan Hall-1611, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa, 50013-0003
