If you're asking whether or not LaTeX is distributed with Sage, the
answer is no. If you're asking whether or not dvips is distributed
with Sage, the answer is again no. The README.txt for Sage 4.2.1
contains this section:
10. OPTIONAL: It is recommended that you have both LaTeX
and the ImageMagick tools (e.g., the "convert" command) installed
since some plotting functionality benefits from it.
You don't need to have LaTeX or a LaTeX distribution installed on your
system in order to install/use Sage. However, if you want to build the
PDF version of the Sage standard documentation, then you definitely
need to have LaTeX.
