TUG holds an annual conference, often in conjunction with other TeX user groups, bringing TeX users from all over the world together to learn the latest in TeX applications and innovations through seminars, talks and informal gatherings. They offer a friendly opportunity to connect with other TeX users at every level of experience. For proceedings of TUG conferences, please see the TUGboat contents listing.
Many other TeX user groups around the world organize conferences from time to time:
Announcements of upcoming TeX conferences are sent to the tex-meetings mailing list. Feel free to join the list or peruse its archives.
If you would like to offer a site for a future TUG meeting, please contact the TUG Conference Committee. We would be happy to hear from anyone who is interested, anywhere in the world.
Following is a list of all TUG and (for reference) EuroTeX meetings, and a few other notable conferences.
