Limitless power to write, create, and automate anything that you can fit on a page.
Set the standard with automations and beautiful typesetting
Members of over 3,500 universities and laboratories and over 1,000 businesses are using Typst.

) Pick a template, create your own, or just start writing. All the formatting happens automatically.
Export as a PDF, image, or a website (in preview), without touching your markup.
Different documents have different needs. Typst supports common types of content out of the box while giving you the power to build the rest.
Visualizations. No matter whether a Gantt chart or an arrow diagram: Visualizations always stay up-to-date with your data.
Mathematics. With beautiful equations as a first-class citizen, Typst is ready for research.
Plots and charts. Box plots, contours, paths, or just a bar chart: Pick a package and draw just the right plot for your data.
Tables. Write tables by hand or plug in CSVs or JSON. Style them all at once or tweak them individually.
Code. Syntax highlighting, line numbers, themes, and callouts. Present code snippets just like in your IDE.
Bibliographies. Automatically format citations and references and sync with Zotero or Mendeley.
Slides. Take your content straight from the page to a slideshow. You can even present right from the app.
Anything else. Your own building blocks: With the integrated scripting features, the only limit is your imagination.
The tutorial sets you up to start writing in less than 30 minutes. And you can learn about advanced topics later in the reference.
Fuse content and scripting to make your documents reactive. In the realm of a Typst document, there is nothing you can’t automate.
= Markup <markup>
With built-in syntax for the most common document elements, Typst markup is designed to be pleasant to write and read:
- *Strong* and _normal_ emphasis
- A reference to @markup
- Math: $a, b in { 1/2, sqrt(4 a b) }$
But that's just the surface!
The compiler is a command line tool that turns Typst markup into PDFs, images, and web pages. It forms the basis of the Typst ecosystem, including our collaborative web app.
Abstract The Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office (VSTO) Runtime is a critical component in the Microsoft Office development ecosystem. This paper provides a solid, technical overview of its architecture, deployment models, compatibility, and lifecycle. It serves as a reference for developers maintaining legacy Office solutions or understanding the evolution of Office extensibility. 1. Introduction The VSTO Runtime is a set of native and managed assemblies that enable managed code add-ins and document-level customizations to run within Microsoft Office applications (Excel, Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Visio, and InfoPath). Released alongside Visual Studio 2010, this runtime version (10.0.x) supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Office 2010 and later, with backwards compatibility to Office 2007.
Unlike its predecessors (VSTO 2005 SE, 2008), the 2010 runtime introduced for add-ins, improved security models, and separation from the .NET Framework versioning. 2. Core Architecture The VSTO 2010 Runtime consists of three primary layers: visual studio 2010 tools for office runtime
Microsoft strongly recommends migrating to or VSTO 2019 runtime (if desktop add-ins are required) for Office 2016+. 8. Common Technical Issues & Solutions | Issue | Typical Cause | Workaround | |-------|---------------|-------------| | "Cannot load add-in" | Missing VSTO runtime or wrong .NET Framework version | Install vstor_redist.exe and target .NET 4.0+ | | "The add-in is not signed" | Deployment manifest lacks Authenticode signature | Sign with a valid code-signing cert | | "Office crashes on load" | Native shim conflict with antivirus | Add shim and add-in assembly to AV exclusion list | | "64-bit Office cannot load add-in" | Add-in compiled for AnyCPU but relies on 32-bit COM | Recompile for x64 or use 32-bit Office | 9. Comparison to Later VSTO Runtimes | Feature | VSTO 2010 Runtime | VSTO 2015+ Runtime (part of Office) | |---------|-------------------|--------------------------------------| | Included in Office | No | Yes (Office 2013 SP1+) | | Supports .NET 4.8 | Yes | Yes | | Supports Office 2019 | No | Yes | | ClickOnce updates | Yes | Yes (improved) | | Standalone redistributable | Yes | No – bundled with Office | 10. Conclusion The Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime was a milestone in managed Office development, enabling robust, security-aware, and deployable add-ins. However, it is now a legacy component. For new Office development targeting modern Office versions, developers should adopt the VSTO 2019 runtime (if maintaining desktop add-ins) or shift to the web-based Office Add-ins model for cross-platform support.
