Problem with using color package

Post by nseagal »

Using the color package gives me an error that says:

! Undefined control sequence.
\set@color ->\pdfliteral {\current@color
}\aftergroup \reset@color

This error pops up only when I use the dissertation template that our university provides. When I used another template, which was provided by IEEE-CS, I did not get this error.

Please help.

Hi nseagal,

we need more information to be able to help, for instance that dissertation template / its preamble or the logfile with the error. The control sequence \current@color is defined and used by several packages and drivers.

Hi nseagal,

I've read in the logfile that you are still using MiKTeX 2.5. I recommend to upgrade to MiKTeX 2.7. I guess you are using an older version of a package that's not defining the macro \current@color but another packages requires it.
