The file compiles OK, as it did with the -tex=latex option. But now YAP (after using TeX mproof) fails with this message: MiKTeX Problem Report Message: Some PostScript specials could not be rendered.

The problem has been discussed in april last year in fr.comp.tex.text http://groups.google.com/group/fr.comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/8a570e588c5670fe/fdd526ffe7fc10e6?hl=de&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8 In this thread the source of the problem was that the (old) tex engine doesn't understand the %&latex notation. You had to force metapost to use pdftex. Either by setting the environment variable TEX: I:\Z-Test>set TEX=pdftex I:\Z-Test>mpost test2.mp or by calling mpost with the -tex=pdftex option: I:\Z-Test>mpost -tex=pdftex test2 -- Ulrike Fischer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
