I ran it on one of my books, I got 108 warnings, with warning codes 1, 11, 12, 13, 23, 26, 38 and 39. Steve, I looked but need to resolve the preamble issue first. Now I know how to do this I'll pay more attention to the warnings. Most of these seem rather innocuous to me, such as the one saying I had punctuation just before a quote (that's the correct way to do it in American English), and the one saying I terminated a command with a space. I can suppress any warning number with -n: Did you suppress some warnings? I've not yet arrived at that point; I'm just starting to learn what chktex shows. Anyway, how strictly are you taking all these warnings? If they follow the Chicago Manual of Style, 15th Edition I'll use them. Almost all I write are distributed as newsletters, white papers, and reports to clients. If this book is accepted by a publisher I'll follow their style guide and use the .cls file they provide.

Kornel, I no longer have a file that shows the behavior, believe that I know what happened. Now I need to figure out how to prevent this behavior in the future. Delving into the problem I discovered that I have managed to set the default document to scrletter2 and that's the preamble that remains even when I change the document class. I'll spend time today figuring out how to fix this. All suggestions are welcome. Regards, Rich

If you send us a minimal example, we can take a look. Scott, Yes, I checked the modules. I resolved the issue by creating a new document using svmono.layout and inserting the original file. Now the Tools menu shows Check TeX. Why this tool did not appear in a new document using the KOMA-Script book class is a mystery, but is now moot. My thanks to you and Paul for spending time on this issue. Happy holidays, Rich
