The problem is already solved.

Command \special{header=xxx.ps} was working in older version of Miktex when the file xxx.ps was in the same directory as the source file. In the last version of MIktex, the system cannot find it even if I give the full path to it. Is it possble too write the content of the file xxx.ps directly to the source file?

The origin is at the top left. Moving right along the x-axis is increasing positively and going down from the origin is also increasing positively the yaxis..

ok i thought it changed the origin. I found out this. If i do a put.... and don't change that but just change the 2nd set of 2 numbers making them more positive moves the object drawn to the left(first number) and down(2nd number). so that would seem to be the coord's for the right ,top corner. Making the numbers more positive in put[...,,...] does opposite. It moves to the right and up. NOw the book by Lamport writes those 2nd set of numbers are the coordinates of the lower-left corner which makes...

I presume it's coordinates of the top left corner and the height and weight. Just try different numbers one at a time, see what changes and you'll find out what they are.

for some reason it is not in the miktex manual Why ? Anyway what do the 2 sets of 2 numbers mean in for example \begin{picture}(111,222)(5,10) I found it before but now i cannot get back to the place i found the description

Hello all together, I have a big challenge with an older LaTeX project: I'd like to open and to modify a document, which I have created ~ 7 years ago with the following setup: - Windows XP - MiKTeX 2.9.6406 - WinEdt 8.2 Now I have the following setup: - Windows 10 - MiKTeX 24.1 - WinEdt 11.2 and unfortunately, a compiling is not possible any more. Up to now I was thinking that one of the biggest advantages of LaTeX is, that you can also compile the documents in 50 years without to be worry about...

Finally found the solution! It was related to your installation directory and the name of the folder. It has to be in "MiKTeX 2.9" folder (with the exact name), and I have installed in "C:\Program Files\MikTeX 2.9". Then problem solved!

I installed (both) newest versions of Miktex (9.10) and TexLive. When I compiled a file containing \usetheme[usetitleprogressbar,usetotalslideindicator]{metropolis} in the preamble and compilation invokes either ./latex/fontspec/fontspec.cfg or ./beamerfontthememetropolis.sty compilation gets stuck. Can anybody help?

Colin, what is "shorter preambles"? A shorter name for the file? Or a shorter name for the folder it is in? On my home desktop everything is working all right. I am wondering if perhaps the firewall (which we have here at work) may interfere with the work of MikTeX. (Probably, not.)

Did you try it in files with shorter preambles, to see if something in the preamble was causing it?

I am using MikTeX 2.9 on Windows 10, with PSPAD editor. I used to have popup window when I compiling a TeX file, so that I know the progress of the compiling and perhaps some error messages. But somehow it disappeared now, the compiling is silent. Anyone know what is wrong?

Hello everyone, I updated my Miktex 2.9 a few weeks ago, and since then, when compiling pdf's with pdflatex, images won't show up in the final document. Before, it worked all the time with lots of different formats: jpeg, wmf, etc........... never had any problems. I tried running pdflatex from the command line (normally I use Scientific Workplace or WinEdt), same result. Can anyone help me?

These version are working for them : graphicx [2014/10/28 v1.0g Enhanced LaTeX Graphics (DPC,SPQR)] and: Package: graphicx 1999/02/16 v1.0f Enhanced LaTeX Graphics (DPC,SPQR) Package: graphics 2009/02/05 v1.0o Standard LaTeX Graphics (DPC,SPQR) I will try to get an older graphicx on TUG FTP and see what happens. I let you know.

Christian Schenk posted a comment on ticket #2627
Yeah, thank you for the info.

Hello Christian, I am not sure whether you want to be kept informed of the outcome, or just forget about it. After some discussion on fctt forum, I found that replacing bb by viewport makes it work. Attached is an updated note.tex, you can compare the two (using bb or using viewport) by changing the \ifftrue by \iffalse on line 20.
-
Sorry, I can't because I don't have the time to investigate further. The problem could be in the engine (pdfTeX). Or it could be a faulty LaTeX package.

Hello, Could you please give me a pointer at the project where to make the report ?

Thank you for the report. I can reproduce the issue. But I do not agree that this is a MiKTeX-specific bug.

Could it be that drive p: was created with the SUBST command? For me the GetVolumePathNameW function used in PathName::GetMountPoint returns X:\\MikTex\\ instead of X:\\ if drive X: was created with "SUBST X: D:\\Programs" (for example). Then the GetVolumeInformationW function call in Utils::SupportsHardLinks fails with Windows API error 144: The directory is not a subdirectory of the root directory.

BTW, these commands are documented in the pdfTeX users manual. When you do mthelp pdftex, you do not get it, but the miktex-pdftex manual. In this manual it is written « see also mthelp pdftex-a ». However, the mthelp pdftex-a does not find the pdfTeX users manual, and the package manager does not find it either.

Okay, I ran that command at the command prompt (administrator). Nothing happened for a few seconds and then the command prompt reappeared. Is that normal? What, if anything, should I have seen? By the way, this behavior did not happen before the latest update of MiKTeX.
