Andre,
Thank you for your assistance on this problem. I have tried to integrate
your code example, and I continue to get the same error. A simplified
version of my code is found below, followed by the error information.
The code should generate a simple 2 page PDF file. I don't know what I'm
missing!
tmpdir = tempfile.mkdtemp()
texrunner = text.texrunner()
# use the full path to open the TeX-file
texrunner.texfilename = os.path.join(tmpdir, 'texrunner')
# now we're ready to start the TeX or LaTeX process (you can do other
preamble "work", too)
texrunner.preamble(r'\relax')
# but we revert the filename afterwards as it is also used to analyse
the
# output, where it occurs without the path
texrunner.texfilename = 'texrunner'
document_pages=[]
unit.set(defaultunit="pt")
