Important license information. Please read before downloading.
XLingPaper depends on the XMLmind XML Editor so you must obtain the XMLmind XML Editor before you can use XLingPaper.
XMLmind offers a very generous Personal Edition License for the XMLmind XML Editor which, if you qualify, means that you can use it for free. If you do not qualify for the Personal Edition License, then you will need to purchase a Professional Edition from XMLmind.
For those of you who are a member of SIL International and are going to use the XMLmind XML Editor program on your own computer, you do qualify to use the Personal Edition. If you are not a member of SIL International, you may well qualify, but be sure to read the license carefully. You can find the license at http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/license_xxe_perso.html.
If you do not qualify, please click here for instructions on what to do.
If you qualify for the free Personal Edition of the XMLmind XML Editor, see below for instructions for installing the XMLmind XML Editor along with XLingPaper for your operating system.

NOTE:
Some Linux users using a 64-bit computer have reported that the (32-bit) 2010 XeLaTeX package that comes with the Linux installer did not work for them. They had to use the (64-bit) 2020 XeLaTeX package. This appears to be because their Linux system is not set up to run 32-bit programs. To get the 2020 installer, see https://software.sil.org/xlingpaper/xelatex-package-from-tex-live-2020/. Also be sure to read https://software.sil.org/xlingpaper/differences-between-xlingpaper-with-tex-live-2010-and-tex-live-2020/.
