Update of PDF Output

Post by minidiable »

Hi to everyone.

I´m currently switching to LyX and I have a problem.

When I´m writing a document and then compile it I would like that after my view (CTRL+R) command I will go directly in the part of the PDF in which I´m working on and not at the beginning of the PDF.

Currently I´m using Adobe Acrobat Pro as PDF viewer and maybe that´s the problem, because my group leader has a MAC and with it he has no problems.

I'm using Sumatra too but when I compile from a position in the LyX file it doesn't go to the corresponding position in the Sumatra PDF file.

Can you help me?
Thanks.

We had a very similar problem just a few days ago. Sumatra PDF would do what you are searching for.

I followed these instructions:

http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/SyncTeX

But it´s still not working. On the other hand, when I double- click on a word of the SUMATRA Pdf file it opens Tex Maker (another software that I don´t want to use) and it shows me the corresponding position of the word in tex source code.

How can I fix that?

If you really followed the complete instructions and it still doesn't work, describe your problem on the LyX mailing list. There are many more LyX than here who could offer concrete help.
