Latex Fails to Compile to PDF

Post by Bornin1992 »

Hi everyone,
I previously was able to use this package, but now have no success. I am running MikTeX 2.9 and Winedt 7.0
The first file I have attached is the .sty file I am trying to use. I installed it by adding to the following directory: “C:\Local TeX Files\tex\latex\misc” and by adding “C:\Local Tex Files” as a Root under MiKTeX Options (Admin) and then refreshed the FNDB and updated the formats.
The second file is the .text file I made from the following tutorial: http://jackson13.info/mla13/Documentation.pdf.
Finally, this is the error I am receiving:
Command Line: texify.exe --pdf --tex-option=--interaction=errorstopmode --tex-option=--synctex=-1 "C:\Users\Ian McParland\Documents\New folder\Text.tex"
Startup Folder: C:\Users\John Doe\Documents\New folder

Code: Select all

! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [parameter stack size=10000].
\@fileswithoptions #1->
                       \@ifnextchar [{\@fileswith@ptions #1}{\@fileswith@pti...
l.2 \usepackage{
                mla13}
!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
Transcript written on Text.log.
texify: pdflatex.exe failed for some reason (see log file).
I tried reinstalling the .sty but still have the same issue? What’s going on?
Thanks!

Hi,

did the answers to your previous question help? We did not get feedback: Paragraph Lines all Flush.

Here, just change the square brackets to braces, in the first line of the .tex document, and the error will be gone:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

Hi Stefan,

Thanks!

And yes, the other answers helped! I thought I had already posted a reply--will do that now!

Cheers!
