Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ What is XeLaTeX doing?

[sunnyriegel]

Hi all,

I'm using Miktex 2.8 and writing with TexWorks.
I've just been working on my BA-thesis and I need to type
Classical Mongolian and Korean. Please take a look at my preamble:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,leqno]{scrartcl}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}

\usepackage{multicol}

\setkomafont{sectioning}{\normalfont\normalcolor\bfseries}

\usepackage{vmargin}
\setmarginsrb{2cm}{5cm}{2cm}{2.5cm}%
{0cm}{0cm}{0cm}{0cm}

Everytime when I try to compile the file, XeLatex tries to download fontspec and xltxtra etc. and it's quite annoying. So, before I can even try to type in Korean or Mongolian, I'd like to solve this problem. What the hell am I doing wrong?

Here is the compilation log :

Hard to say what is going wrong. Perhaps a malfunction during installation or a failed configuration. I suggest to install the current MiKTeX 2.9 and try again.

Some messages in the log file are very suspicious. Right after the last attempt to install fontspec there is a system message.

Code: Select all

xelatex.EXE: Windows API error 32: Der Prozess kann nicht auf die Datei
zugreifen, da sie von einem anderen Prozess verwendet wird.

And perhaps you should listen to some other things the XeLaTeX engine is telling you.

Code: Select all

*** you should *not* be loading the inputenc package
*** XeTeX expects the source to be in UTF8 encoding
*** some features of other encodings may conflict,
    resulting in poor output.

So drop inputenc and also fontenc. They are not for use with XeLaTeX. Furthermore you should use polyglossia instead of babel for typesetting with XeLaTeX.

And by the way, it is better to attach complete files by uploading them to the forum server. This also improves the legibility of a post.


Best regards and welcome to the board

I'm using Miktex 2.8 and writing with TexWorks.
I've just been working on my BA-thesis and I need to type
Classical Mongolian and Korean. Please take a look at my preamble:

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,leqno]{scrartcl}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\usepackage{xltxtra}

\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}

\usepackage{multicol}

With xelatex use

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,leqno]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{german}
\usepackage{multicol}
...

xelatex needs a lot of packages which must be installed the first time, as can already be seen in the log file.

Hi Thorsten,

thank you very much for welcoming me and giving me your
valuable advices about posting here. I'll keep that in mind.

The initial problem is solved, I just downloaded MiKTex 2.9
and now xelatex works in principal.

I will post every other question after I've looked for existing posts.

Thanks!
