General ⇒ PDF View crashes TeXnicCenter

[david douterlungne]

Hi all,

I am a newbie with LaTeX and I am trying to get things work. I installed MikTeX 2.8 and TeXnicCenter as text editor on Windows 7. Everything seems to run. Using 'LaTeX => PDF', I can see the built document in PDF (Adobe Reader X, version 10.0.1.434), but this causes TeXnicCenter to crash when I try to go back to it. No errors are reported and the PDF document looks fine. I have no problem if I switch to 'LaTeX => DVI'. I looked quite a time for similar crash reports on the net but didn't find any.

Please post a MWE and a screenshot of your output profile you use for compiling a PDF file. Please search for any unkown terms online first.

Hi,

Below is one of the files I try to run. But it doesn´t depend on the .tex file I run, Texnic just crashes every thime I try to view the created .PDf with my acrobat reader. I am quiet shure the problem is not the latex file I run. When I just build the .pdf document without vieuwing, Texnic stays allive. Other open .pdf documents does not causes Texnic to crash.

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{table}[ht]
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{lrrrrr}
\hline
& Df & Sum Sq & Mean Sq & F value & Pr($>$F) \\
\hline
sp & 5 & 236.95 & 47.39 & 102.86 & 0.0000 \\
sitio & 3 & 6.04 & 2.01 & 4.37 & 0.0045 \\
sp:sitio & 15 & 53.38 & 3.56 & 7.72 & 0.0000 \\
Residuals & 2167 & 998.39 & 0.46 & & \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{table}
\end{document}

No, he meant what you see in the "Build\Define Output Profiles\Viewer" for th eprofile you use.

Think about using an alternative editor. TeXnicCenter (TXC) 1 RC1 is an older version and was never meant to run on Wind0ws systems higher than XP. If you want to stay with TXC, try TXC2a3 instead. But remember, it's an alpha version.
