I have Yap 0.098n and had worked correctly until today's day when I have installed ghostscript 8.11 and ghostview 4.5. Now the yap not show the .dvi files correctly. It not show the .eps figures. I have experimented the same problem with: C:\texmf\doc\miktex\samples\epsdemo.dvi The log file looks: Loading page 1... Sending C:\texmf\dvips\base\tex.pro...

Hi All, I am having some problems with YAP (currently using YAP 2.4.1398). The first problem is related to displaying EPS and PS files. Sometimes they work and sometimes they do not. I have not been able to have a repeatable problem so I guess it may be hard to identify what is wrong. In this case, if anyone has any suggestion how to easily update or re-install YAP it would be great. The second problem, which does not necessarily seem to be related is on how YAP renders text. In my installation, I often (again, it is unpredictable) get text that is 'corrupted' whenever I include any text in colour using the "color" package.: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{color} \newcommand{\review}[1]{\textcolor{red}{\textbf{#1}}} \begin{document} This text is black. \review{This text is red.} \end{document} Since I am not sure whether this e-mail will go through with an attached PNG file (with a sample of the corrupted text) I have posted the image at: http://v5o5jotqkgfu3btr91t7w5fhzedjaoaz8igl.unbf.ca/~jcarrete/error-rendering-in-yap.png Any help would be appreciated.

Some PostScript specials are understood by Yap and some aren't. If you rely on postscript convert to PS and view the file in GSview. Hans PS! color is normally supported. Some issues with color has been reported: <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=10783&atid=110783&func=detail&aid=1018470> Since your problem seems different I suggest that you file a bug report. PS! You should never include PS files, only EPS files, in a latex document. |

Hi Hans, thanks for the reply. I just switched all my PS figures to EPS using GSview. I then tested YAP and I still have the same problem with it not displaying the figures (none of them). I guess you comment on YAP not being a PS viewer extends to EPS (?). I know that if I use PNG I have no problems with YAP but if I do that I would dramatically decrease the quality of my images. Any ideas where to start looking? Is the problem originate when the PS or EPS image is created? Juan Antonio --- "Hans F.

Try ps2eps (which removes postscript commands that aren't allowed in EPS-files): http://www.telematik.informatik.uni-karlsruhe.de/~bless/ps2eps.html > I know that if I use PNG I have no problems with YAP > but if I do that I would dramatically decrease the > quality of my images. Why do you have to view it in Yap - isn't GSview an option? (Or PDF?) Hans |

Of course PS in GSview or PDF in Acrobat (or equivalent) are an option, it is just that it takes longer to preview. Furthermore, those two do not provide the capability (that I know of) to link them back to the TEX file as YAP does. Cheers, Juan Antonio --- "Hans F.

Aha! You have set the temporary directory to C:\localtexmf. Do not do this! In addition to this being misuse of the local texmf tree, you get into trouble because files in the texmf trees are only found if they are in the filename database. (That's why the file C:\localtexmf\mikCE.tmp isn't read/found by Yap.) Set TEMP/TMP to C:\TEMP or something similar. Best regards, Hans |

I guess you all have read Albert's reply: Version 0.098n is outdated and does not work with the recent Ghostscript/GSView. You must update to Yap 0.99i via the MiKTeX update wizard. Maybe that you have to download the latest wizard first. I guess this is the correct reason, since the problem started when ghostscript 8.11 was installed. However, my comments about using localtexmf as a temporary directory are still valid. Regards, Hans |

Thanks everybody. I will update to Yap 0.99i, and correct the use of \localtexmf Jairo Arbey |
