Also tried script/Makefile.msvc with same results

Greetings,
I'm getting the same errors. Tried with CMake also.

Need to get this resolved... All I want to do is build a PDF but it seems that is very difficult to do now a days. Nothing seems to be compatible anymore.

I'm also using Visual Studio 2017. A resolution to this issue wouuld be nice.
