Recently I bought a new Mac Mini with the M1 chip (boy, is this thing f-a-s-t), and I wanted to start fresh. So, it’s just about time I wrote this little guide.
After installing some of my favorite programs, I tackled the notorious installation of LaTeX with Hebrew support head-on.
Here’s what I did:
- I’m using MacTeX and LyX.
- To add Hebrew support, I downloaded the Culmus Hebrew fonts (the gz file for OpenBSD), and installed (directly into Font Book) the David, Miriam, and Simple fonts.
- I compile using XeTeX, which supports Unicode out of the box.
- My font settings are:
- David CLM for Roman
- Simple CLM for Sans Serif
- Miriam CLM for Typewriter
- Class Default for Math
Check out the following picture for more details (this can be found under Document➡️Settings...):
Further guides can be found here (I personally recommend the guide by Michael Kelly).
