以前一直用 CJK 宏包处理中文，基本够用，后来改用更符合中文用户使用习惯 的 CCT 宏包。下面这些内容源于以前配置 tetex-2.0 的步骤，改动后用 于tetex-3.0。现在不用了，放在这里留个纪念。
1. 建立 $TEXMFHOME 目录，拷贝 gbkfonts 二进制文件
$ mkdir ~/texmf $ cp /your/path/gbkfonts ~/texmf/
2. copy truetype 中文字体
$ mkdir ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/ $ cp /your/path/sim*.ttf ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/
常用的有宋体、黑体、楷体。
3. 生成字体
$ cd ~/temxf/ $ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simsun.ttf song $ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simhei.ttf hei $ ./gbkfonts ~/texmf/fonts/truetype/chinese/simkai.ttf kai
4. 调整目录
按 标准 TeX 目录结构（TDS）调整生成的文件：
$ mkdir -p ~/texmf/fonts/{map/{dvipdfm,dvips,pdftex,ttf2pk},\
> enc/{dvips/chinese,pdftex/chinese}}
$ mv ~/texmf/dvips/cjk.map ~/temxf/fonts/map/dvips/
$ mv ~/texmf/pdftex/config/*.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/
$ mv ~/texmf/dvipdfm/config/*.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/dvipdfm/
$ mv ~/texmf/ttf2pk/ttfonts.map ~/texmf/fonts/map/ttf2pk/
$ mv ~/texmf/dvips/chinese/* ~/texmf/fonts/enc/dvips/chinese/
$ mv ~/texmf/pdftex/enc/* ~/texmf/fonts/enc/pdftex/chinese/
5. dvips 的必要配置
$ mkdir ~/texmf/dvips/config/ $ cp /usr/share/texmf-tetex/dvips/config.ps ~/texmf/dvips/config/ $ cat "p +cjk.map" >> ~/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps
6. 刷新 TeX 文件名数据库
$ texhash

`listings' (v1.3) conflicts with `CJK' (v4.7.0) in teTeX 3.0.
The solution is to add
\lstset{extendchars=false}
to the preamble of your LaTeX source file.

The epstopdf command coming from your TeX distrubution can convert eps to pdf.
However, due to a bug in GhostScript, the image is rotated by 90 degrees
sometimes. Thus you should use this command to do the conversion. Of course
you want to replace my.eps and my.pdf with the file
name of your images.
egrep -v "^%%Orientation:" my.eps | epstopdf --filter --outfile=my.pdf

After using latex to get an dvi file, you should run these
commands:
dvips -Ppdf -G0 myfile.dvi ps2pdf myfile.ps
If the generated pdf file has very small top margin, it means
dvips generated A4 size but you expected letter size. Thus you
should use dvips like this:
dvips -t letterSize -Ppdf -G0 myfile
