Synchronize Source and Output with "LaTeX -> DVI -> PDF"

Post by Mini »

Hi,

I'm using Texmaker on Mac OS X and I cannot synchronize between the output and source code, when compiling using LaTeX + dvipdfm ... I'd use PDFLaTeX, but I use pstricks and thus I need to use Latex.

Could someone please advise a solution?

Thanks

Synchronize Source and Output with "LaTeX -> DVI -> PDF"

The SyncTeX technology is only supported by PDFLaTeX. If you want both synchronization and direct PDF output with PSTricks, there are some workarounds available [1]. Pay special attention to remarks in the manuals of possibly involved packages.
