Problems in rendering LaTeX for Inkscape 0.91 in Windows 7

Postby yw5aj » Mon Aug 03, 2015 3:11 am

I find my Inkscape 0.91 for Windows 7 64-bit has problems in rendering LaTeX. What I did was:

1) Extensions - Render - LaTeX
2) Enter "test" in LaTeX input
3) Click "Apply".

Then, a cmd.exe window will pop out and just hang there. If I close this window, I get:

Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The
script did not return an error, but this may indicate the results will
not be as expected.

^Cinvalid LaTeX input:
test
temporary files were left in:
c:\users\admini~1\appdata\local\temp\inkscape-zxdypk
Could anyone please help? Thanks!

PS: latex, dvips, gs, and pstoedit are already in system path.

I probably can't help much. I'm not familiar with LaTex, and I can't even find it in 0.91 (see screenshot). But I remember seeing it in 0.48x.

I found this

Good luck! Wish I could be more help.
