WinEdt 5.5 and Acrobat Reader 10 (X)

I am having a problem opening (and closing) pdf files from winedt. (Version 5.5 and Acrobat Reader 10)

Initially the file opens, but gives an error back in winedt.

Re: LaTeX on Ubuntu

Thanks for all the info Joseph and frabjous. I have gone for a complete install and kile. For the moment this works fine. Ideally I would like to have more control over which packages are on my system and whether they are up to date or not, but I think I will leave that for a future date.

Re: LaTeX on Ubuntu

Thanks for the info. Looks like I'll just have to install the whole lot. Seems a shame really.

When the packages get updated on CTAN, does the Ubuntu package manager update too?

LaTeX on Ubuntu

Hi all, I hope this forum can provide me with advice.

I used to run MikTeX and winedt on windows. I liked the install on the fly option, so that I didn't have to have all the latex packages installed.

I have just switched my operating system to Ubuntu 10.04. I am a complete beginner and am ...

Re: overbar in parentheses

I have never seen the parenthesis around a bar in particle physics or in basic versions of the standard models (but I'm not a particle physicist. Could you link to an article with them in to give me an idea as to what they really should look like?

Also, the mhchem package allows you to add text ...

removing line breaks in bibliography

Hi.

I want to remove the line breaks in my bibliography so that the citation style would be as follows

[1]a reference. [2] a second reference. [3] etc.

rather than

[1]a reference.
[2]a second reference.
[3]etc.


Is there an easy way to do this using Bibtex?

Thanks

Re: Bibliography citation entry links to URL using DOI

I too am looking into if this is possible. Just thought I would bump this page to see if anyone knows.

Re: Create a macro

Thanks as well. Latexing chapters rather than the project by mistake was bugging me chronically.

Re: List of Abbreviations with nomencl package

Once you have run latex on the files, you need to include the abbreviations file.

In Winedt, this is done by opening the command prompt window, ensuring you are in the correct directory of the main tex file, and typing the following.

makeindex thesis.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o thesis.nls

Run latex ...
