$Id: README 66203 2023-02-26 21:56:36Z karl $ XeTeX is an extension of Donald Knuth's TeX, originally and primarily written by Jonathan Kew. It natively supports UTF-8 Unicode input and TrueType and OpenType fonts, mainly via external third-party libraries. (Run xetex --version to see a list of the principal ones.) XeTeX's user-level output is a PDF file; it does not support standard DVI output, but an extended DVI format which is converted to PDF by xdvipdfmx.
