Re: [MiKTeX] Problems with PDFTeXify

[Paul <lo...@ex...>]

 

I've had problems using pdftex, or texify with the --pdf option. Shown below is an e-mail I sent to a user with a problem similar to yours. My solution is a little clunky, but not quite as clunky as what you outline below.  Good luck, Paul Louisell You've received numerous answers, and I haven't bothered to read them all, so I may be repeating one. But I've had problems using pdftex; I recommend creating the .dvi file, and then using dvipdfm or dvipdfmx on the .dvi file. E.g., dvipdfm mydocument.dviThis will create a .pdf file from the .dvi file. I haven't tried Christopher Heckman's advice below; his sounds more convenient as long as you don't run into problems with pdftex.--- On Tue 07/11, Juan Carretero < jua...@ya... > wrote:From: Juan Carretero [mailto: jua...@ya...]To: mik...@li...Date: Tue, 11 Jul 2006 13:36:52 -0700 (PDT)Subject: [MiKTeX] Problems with PDFTeXifyHi All,This is likely question with a simple answer but 
aftergoogling for a while I have not been able to find ananswer so hopefully someone can point me in the rightdireaction.I am using Winedt 5.4 with MiKTeX 2.4 and trying touse the PDF Texify and the PDF LaTeX buttons butneither seems to be able to create the PDF files (theDVI file is created though).I have a minimal document:documentclass{article}begin{document}This is my article.end{document}which returns the log text below. Can anyone tell mehow to fix this. Of course, I can generate PDF filesgoing the long route (i.e., LaTeX -> DVI -> PS -> PDF)but, in addition to be anoying, the hyperlinks bydefault show as highlighted boxes.Thanks in advance.Juan AntonioThis is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.11b-2.1 (MiKTeX2.4) (preloaded format=latex 2005.3.10) 11 JUL 200617:31entering extended mode**erase_me.tex(erase_me.tex{pdftex.cfg}LaTeX2e <2001/06/01>Babel and hyphenation patterns for english,french, spanish, dumylang, nohyphenation,
