# `luapstricks` -- A PSTricks backend for LuaTeX Support PSTricks directly in LuaTeX, without requiring external processes, special environments or similar. Since recent PSTricks versions load `luapstricks` automatically when LuaLaTeX is used, this does not require changes to the document. Some advanced features require the `pdfmanagement-testphase` package to be loaded and activated. ## Usage 1. Make sure that you have the latest pstricks version installed. 2. Run `l3build install` *or* copy `luapstricks.lua` from this repository into the directory of your TeX files or another directory in your TeX search path. 3. Compile your document with `lualatex`. 4. Given that most people immediately stop reading after they get a result and you are still here, the previous stage probably failed. Write a bug report to the author. Otherwise go to step 7. 5. Wait for a fix. 6. Go back to step 2 and try again. 7. It worked? That's great. Feel free to inform the author anyway and share the awesome images you created. ## Issues and feature requests Should you find a bug or want to request a feature, please report it using the [issue tracker](https://github.com/zauguin/luapstricks/issues). ## License This code is licensed under the LaTeX Project Public License 1.3. ## Acknowledgments This project would never have reached a usable state without all the testing and suggestions by Pablo González Luengo. Also many thanks to Herbert Voß for adapting PSTricks and related packages to work with luapstricks. ## Demos Documentation of PSTricks packages, created by `lualatex` and `luapstricks.lua`, can be found at .
