Re: Missing Figures when generating PDF

Post by galofek »

Hmm... Ghostscript and not Ghostview... Right... So I installed Ghostscript 8.63 and this actually solved the ps file problem :D I'm able to view my document in the ps format (plus the figures)... One less thing to worry about... :)
But, the PDF is still a problem... Still missing the figures...
How about the warning:""Package pdfcolmk Warning: Nothing to fix, because 'pdftex.def' not loaded". Can this cause the PDF to be missing from the figures..?

Thanks again for your time.

Do not load the pdfcolmk package. It is only for use with pdflatex.

I couldn't find where I'm loading the pdfcolmk package... Is it embedded in some other package?

Thanks!

Obviously yes. And it causes the warning. Build a minimal working example (MWE) that produces exact this warning. Add the \listfiles command as very first line to the code. Search the log file and post the section between *File List* and ***********. This way we will surely be able to find out which package requires pdfcolmk and solve the other issues.

Your file list clearly states that you are loading the pdfcolmk package right after the xcolor package. Please post at least the preamble of the document that produced this list. But the best would be to build a minimal working example (MWE) with a concerned graphics file and the according log file attached.

Omit the the dvips driver option for the xcolor package. It is superfluous since the package detects on its own which compiler is running.

As the changes manual (Section 2.1 - Used packages, p. 3) says, the package uses among others the pdfcolmk package. You should generally study the manuals of all the packages you are using in a document.
