Converting Problem

Post by S_David »

Hello,

I am workning on WinEdt Latex editor, but I have a problem converting from ps to pdf, where it gives me "Error starting ps2pdf, see WinEdt's configuration wizard...". What might the problem be?

Thanks in advance

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Perhaps ps2pdf is not correctly installed. Check your LaTeX distribution if it provides it or install it separately, or, if it's installed, check your WinEdt configuration if the entries (for instance the directory path name of ps2pdf) is correct.

It is working in the TeXnicCenter editor, so, I guess there is a problem in the configuration of WinEdt, but I don't know where I shall start from.

Perhaps the Help & Documentation section of the WinEdt Community can help.


Best regards
