Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ How can I draw plots in LaTeX?

[ditka]

Well, I have problem using gnuplot in pretty much in any way.

Is there any known inconpatibilites between latex and latest version of gnuplo?

[cgnieder]

If gnuplot works for you on it's own it might be interesting to see the log file of the small example you posted.

[ditka]

Here it is. Yes gnuplot on its own forks fine.

This looks like you did not run pdflatex with »shell-escape« (also know as »write18«) enabled.

If you mean the , Edit / Preferences, Typesetting tab, pdfLaTeX, there I have enable 18. Shud I put is somwere else?

[cgnieder]

Unfortunately I don't have a Windows machine with MiKTeX available right now. Tomorrow I can test. Which editor are you using?

[ditka]

TexWorks.

[josephwright]

In TeXworks, go to Edit, Preferences and choose the Typesetting tab and then pdfLaTeX. Choose Edit ..., then use the + to add an option, and type '--shell-escape'. OK that, then use the 'Up' arrow to move that about $basename. OK everything, and you should then have shell escape set up.

[ditka]

I have done that before, I have post snape shots in previus posts, altough I use enable write 18, I have also tried with shel escape and it did not change anything.
