Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ pstricks | Basic Problems

[argan]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to learn how to use pstricks, but encounter a problem when attempting to load it. The problem is that as soon as I load the package, the latex compiler doesn't seen to compile it properly.

For example, with a minimum of code:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

\documentclass{article} 
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}
Test document
\end{document}

Run LaTeX here

Whenever I load pstricks, as soon as I change anything in the document, I don't see it reflected in the compiled file. I don't get any error messages either. The .dvi file doesn't even seem to be updated? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing pstricks, but it didn't help.

I am using MiKTeX 2.9 and writing in TeXnicCenter 1.0. I don't really know what could be wrong. I hope that was enough information.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Björn

Hi Björn,

perhaps post the .log file here, as attachment, when compiling with PSTricks.

As the log file seems to be truncated, it might be a known issue. Have a look at this post:

Re: No output after recovering from system rebuild.

That solved it. Thanks!
