There's a couple of measures you could take to ensure quality of service:
- embed a version known to work well in your application and use that version

Last time I checked, the latest version of TeXlive is quite large. $ du -csh /opt/local/share/texmf* 3.7M /opt/local/share/texmf 543M /opt/local/share/texmf-dist 4.0K /opt/local/share/texmf-local 53M /opt/local/share/texmf-var 599M total

You probably wouldn't want to stuff all of that inside your app bundle.
- check the version of the tool and warn the user if it's too old or not your preferred version
etc.


Probably a better option.
