I traced the code to understand better and saw that plant-uml-exec-mode can have settings of server and jar With the jar setting (and after pointing a few variables to the jar file), I am getting a different error: error in process sentinel: PLANTUML Preview failed: exited abnormally with code 1 The plantuml.el code seems to 1. start a process and then 2. pass the plantuml string to the process. It is at step 2 that the error is issued. Mirko
