Missing Fonts Coming soon. Improve this answer. You've left the most exciting part unwritten! I'd like to add a suggestion: when you can't find the missing package, check out the collection packages. For instance, I had trouble with a missing pzdr before, and the solution was to install collection-fontsrecommended.
To handle missing fonts try sudo tlmgr install collection-fontsrecommended. I think it's worth necro-ing this answer with an edit, to include texliveonfly 's wonderful functionality. Add a comment.

Not yet matching the requirement for one feature doesn't give a reason to misuse another feature instead. If you give some answers, you will soon get the commenting feature. I'm sorry about that. While it was morally a comment, it seemed to be useful enough as a separate answer to excuse the abuse. I was very excited when I saw tlmgr search somewhere else—I'd somehow managed to miss it on every pass through the documentation—and was pretty sure that I'd forget about this question by the time that I had enough reputation for a comment.
It would be great if you return to this topic soon, because Sharpies answer is CW and can be edited by everyone with at least rep, so you can extend it then. When I do so which may be a while, since I'm not a frequent contributor and so am earning reputation only quite slowly , should I delete this answer?
I think the comment of L Spice is really helpful and looks perfectly fine to me. It could be easily merged with the other one though. Still, I think it is a useful contribution, and that L Spice deserves some points for helping. Show 2 more comments. A little late, but you can also consider using texliveonfly , as described in this tutorial on installing BasicTex.
This is interesting as I have no use for the PDF documentation; I always search for documentation online anyway. If it's taking up the bulk of the space this seems like an easy fix. Is there a way to remove just the PDF documentation? Great point about the silly pdf documentation.
It'd be awesome if a documentation-less distribution existed. Wonder how small it could be Little late to the party but if you want to easily install mactex with varying degrees of bloat you can use the package manager home-brew to install one of the following: There are three versions of MacTeX.
Full installation: brew cask install mactex Full installation without bundled applications: brew cask install mactex-no-gui Minimal installation: brew cask install basictex.
Octothorp Octothorp 31 2 2 bronze badges. Welcome to TeX. Homebrew really just uses the MacTeX installer, so there's no real advantage of using it over the regular MacTeX or BasicTeX installers as suggested in the main answer.
I could be wrong but I couldn't find the "mactex-no-gui" install on the mactex page. I just wanted the kitchen sink without the faucet. You could start with basictex and piece by piece build your way up to that but I am just lazy enough to not want to do that.
Also thanks for the Welcome! But they are 79 MB so in terms of space they add nothing. The bulk of the size of TL is in the documentation.

Any answer except: "latex boils down to about 20 to 50 MB of useful code, with an additional 4. Latex is now the 1 most bloated piece of software in the modern world.

I personally use MikTeX for my own purposes, however, this is mostly a matter of not changing old habits and a temperamental internet connection. Sites such as ShareLaTeX and cloud processing in general are the future of LaTeX typesetting and have several amazing features such as shared document editing and integration with cloud storage.
Overview This section will give installation instructions for PC and Mac users as well as a new cloud based solution for LaTeX typesetting. Why we need installation LaTeX can be run from the command line with a text editor and properly installed programs, however, I recommend using a LaTeX environment.
Install downloaded package. These programs help to increase the readability of LaTeX code during the editing process. Many of these programs contain wizards that can speed of the creation of certain LaTeX objects such as tables, they have overlays when using commands to provide information and to make sure the inputs are formatted properly, and they often have toolbars that simplify the use of certain common commands and symbols. Both the MiKTeX and MacTex downloads discussed above include a text editor, but you may want to look around to find the one you like best.
I for example use TexStudio, a popular text editor. A comparison of various editors are available. To illustrate how powerful a good text editor can be look at the two codes below.
The first is written in notepad, for the new user it can be very difficult to follow this code and equally difficult to edit. The second image is the same code written in TexStudio. In TexStudio the code is automatically color coded. The color coding makes it much easier to tell the difference between comments, equations, text, commands, and other LaTeX structures. The LaTeX project also has links for differnt online platforms that can be used to edit, view, and download.
