Hi Bill, If you are compiling from source, when you run the ./configure script, use the following: ./configure --enable-dvi. Then go through the usual motions of make and make install. This also works for allowing TIFF format, or PDF format by using: ./configure --enable-pdf --enable-tiff. For the latter two you need to make sure you have the latest poppler 0.6 and the tiff-dev libraries. Hope it helps. Cheers, Gideon
