Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed

Thanks for your patience, I'm still getting all of the kinks worked out of the new tetex. The new tetex-base package installs a file /sw/share/doc/tetex-base/README.fink which are the release notes Jean-Francois was referring to. The pdflatex business will be smoother in the next version. For no

Having just installed and built tetex-2.0-5, I am having the same problem reported earlier of not having a pdflatex command (although pdftex -progname pdflatex does work, modulo other problems). Following JF Merten's instructions, I tried: do first a dpkg -c /sw/fink/debs/tetex-base_2.0-5_darwi

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

A way of getting the pdf in landscape format is to use the "geometry" package in latex with the landscape option, i.e. \usepackage[a4paper,landscape]{geometry} Then use your same commands to produce the file Land.ps and then just ps2pdf Land.ps. This should give Land.pdf in landscape format. St
