The PracTeX Journal, or simply PracTeX, also known as TPJ, was an online journal focussing on practical use of the TeX typesetting system. The first issue appeared in March 2005.[1] It was published by the TeX Users Group and intended to be a complement to their primary print journal, TUGboat. The PracTeX Journal was last published in October 2012.[2]

Topics covered in PracTeX included:

  • publishing projects or activities accomplished through the use of TeX
  • problems that were resolved through the use of TeX or problems with TeX that were resolved
  • how to use certain LaTeX packages
  • questions & answers
  • introductions for beginners

The editorial board included many long-time and well-known TeX developers, including Lance Carnes, Arthur Ogawa, and Hans Hagen.
