2. I don't know any Tex at all
3. i don't know the difference between TeX and LaTeX

LaTeX is a set of macros defined to simplify document creation in TeX, which is the typesetting language behind. LaTeX can be basically viewed as a layer over TeX.
And, I really think you should know a little ...

Well, I can't give you the code, but I can give you some ideas...

If you know TeX a little you know that when it begins to build the second minipage, the first one is only a big box and what is inside is forgotten, so you can't ask TeX to align the right part with the left part this way.

So, what ...

Hi,
I found a trick :

Hi,

Could you provide a real Minimal Working Example which shows what the problem is ?

However, I still have a hint for you : read the log ! Babel is warning you that you should add \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} in your preamble when using the Babel french package.

If that doesn't solve the problem ...

You can instead change the default length of the axis :

\draw[x=1em,y=1em] (0,0) -- ({sqrt(2)},1);

If you want to use this length in your whole picture, you can just put the option after the \begin{tikzpicture} :

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}[x ...

Well, I identified the "guilty" lines in the xgreek.sty file :

\let\@afterindentfalse\@afterindenttrue
\@afterindenttrue

Of course if you comment them in this file, your code will work fine with no first-paragraph indentation, but this is not a good solution, because the result will be different ...

Hmm, sorry for the log, didn't see I had to click on "Add the file"...

So, the only differences are the files :


ot1ztmcm.fd 2000/01/03 Fontinst v1.801 font definitions for OT1/ztmcm.
omlztmcm.fd 2000/01/03 Fontinst v1.801 font definitions for OML/ztmcm.
omsztmcm.fd 2000/01/03 Fontinst v1.801 ...

Hi and thank you for your answer.

Hello everybody,

Reading l2tabu, I found out that the package "times" I used was obsolete, and so I began to use mathpmx / helvet / courier.

But, any time I put a math env. in my document, pdflatex does not compile, and I get 0 pages, and no errors / warnings too.

Here is my sample code ...
