TeXstudio | Build only PDF
When I do PDFLaTeX then it builds all kinds of files: .aux, .log, .out, .synctex.gz
and I find it very messy.
Is it possible to configure it to build only pdf?
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

- The *.aux contains necessary and thus very important information for lists (e. g. for ToC, LoF, LoT, Index, …)
- The *.log file contains the log of the whole building process including warnings and error messages. Substantial for debugging erroneous source code.
- The *.synctex.gz file contains important information for the forward and inverse search between source code and PDF output.
- …
Code: Select all
pfdlatex -aux-directory=dir filename.tex

Re: TeXstudio | Build only PDF
I am still interested in a solution. For example how to clean up afterwards
