I'm using MIktex2.9 and I want to add a separate pdf page to my thesis. I installed the pdfpages package using the Miktex package installer. It installed successfully. I can see the pdfpages.sty in Miktex2.9/tex/latex/pdfpages forlder.
However when I try to use this package using \usepackage{padfpages}, it gives the following error.
LaTeX Error: File `padfpages.sty' not found.
Can someone help me to find why I get this error?
Thanks.

If you have copied the command and the message from your original file and log, the reason is simple: The name of the installed package isthilinihnd wrote:However when I try to use this package using \usepackage{padfpages}, it gives the following error.

pdfpages
not padfpages
. So you should change \usepackage{padfpages}
into \usepackage{pdfpages}
(or install a package named padfpages
, but CTAN does not have such a package).Sorry, but I can no longer participate here as the administrator is trampling on my wishes on one of his other platforms.

Hi thilinihnd,
welcome to the forum!
Simple typing mistake
can easily happen. It's good anyway when there's an easy solution!
But mainly I wanted to say welcome, here.
