Sorry, this statement seems to be wrong. I misread the description in the article https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/52988/avoid-linebreaks-in-latex-console-log-output . After installing MikTeX 2.9 on my windows 10 home edition, in addtion to TeXLive 2017, it turned out that MikTeX doesn't see the environment variable max_print_line. According to the above article, MikTeX needs either of the two: (1) Add command line option --max-print-line=1000 to latex. (2) Edit the config file and modify max_print_line parameter. In addtion, if my installation of MikTeX is correct (I'm not 100% sure that some interfere between MikTeX and TeXLive occurs), preview-latex does not support MikTeX in the first place even when the extra line breaks do not appear. The (pdf)latex included in MikTeX outputs messages like this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- circ.tex:49: Preview: Snippet 2 started circ.tex:49: Preview: Snippet 2 ended.(651269+183455x14483456) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Because of the absence of a period at the end of these lines, the regexp I mentioned before does not match and preview-latex ends up with a message "error in process sentinel: LaTeX found no preview images". Even when I modified the regexp to allow that the period at EOL is optional, another error "error in process sentinel: Wrong type argument: number-or-marker-p, nil", after Preview-PDF2DSC is killed, keeps preview-latex from working. I don't want to play with MikTeX further, so I'll leave the matters concerned with MikTeX and preview-latex untouched. Therefore, I'm afraid that the perspective > And I also expect that the same prescription can be applied to solve > reliably similar problem handled in `TeX-format-filter' at the part > "Remove line breaks at columns 79 and 80" comment.
