Re: MonkeyTeX

Hi! If MonkeyTeX provides an API, you’ll likely need to authenticate (maybe with an API key) and send a GET request to an endpoint like /files/{filename}.tex. Check their API docs for the exact route and any headers needed. Let us know what you’ve tried so far!

Re: Does PCTeX have proper e-TeX support?

It sounds like your guess is right — PCTeX v6 likely doesn't run an e-TeX-compatible engine by default, which is why etoolbox throws that error. Unless PCTeX allows switching to an e-TeX-enabled engine (like pdfTeX with e-TeX extensions), the simplest fix would be to switch to a TeX distribution ...

Re: KerTeX | New lightweight TeX/LaTeX Distribution

Thanks for sharing, Antonio! Suena muy interesante tener una alternativa tan ligera como KerTeX, sobre todo para sistemas minimalistas o embebidos. Lo probaré en alguna distro ligera a ver qué tal funciona. ¡Gracias por el aviso!

Re: BaseTeX with TeXShop

Hi! It looks like BaseTeX is missing some fonts or they’re not properly installed, causing those errors. You might want to update your TeX distribution or try installing the full MacTeX instead—it's bigger but includes all fonts and avoids these issues.

Re: pgf | Installation of Package and Libraries on PCTeX

Hi! That error usually means your PGF/TikZ package is outdated or not properly installed. Try updating your TeX distribution or reinstalling the TikZ/PGF packages. PCTeX might have old versions that don’t support some commands used in your code.

Re: Help with error: XeTeX is required to compile this document

Hi! The first error happens because you’re running the file with latex, but you need to compile it with xelatex to use fontspec. Also, running xetex directly won’t work well for a full document. Try this command instead:

Code: Select all

xelatex test_latex.tex
That should fix it!

Re: Texniccenter and Dragon NaturallySpeaking

Hi! Sounds like a tricky keyboard-layout clash between Dragon and TeXnicCenter. Since Dragon works fine with English (US) except in TeXnicCenter, it might be how TeXnicCenter handles input or keyboard mappings. Maybe try running TeXnicCenter as admin or check if there’s an option to set input ...

Re: MacTeX and TeXshop /usr/pdflatex does not exist

Hi V, welcome to LaTeX! That error usually means TeXLive isn’t properly installed or TeXShop can’t find it. I’d recommend reinstalling MacTeX from scratch and then checking TeXShop’s preferences to make sure the path to pdflatex is correct (usually it should point to /Library/TeX/texbin/pdflatex ...

Re: Command Line Options

Hi Sathish! As far as I know, BaKoMa TeX Word lets you open files via command line like you did, but it doesn’t support advanced commands like WinEdt’s to jump to specific lines or selections. You might need to open the file normally and navigate inside manually. Hope that helps!

Re: LaTeX on Android

Hey Bullwinkle! For Android, you can try apps like “TeXPortal” or “VerbTeX,” which let you compile LaTeX directly on your tablet. They’re not as full-featured as desktop setups but work well for on-the-go editing and compiling. Hope that helps!
