Can everyone who still has this problem attach his file /usr/share/ghostscript/8.71/lib/pdf2dsc.ps
and then run the following commands in a terminal window: sudo dpkg -P --force-depends ghostscript sudo apt-get install ghostscript and then try the pdflatex preview again. Does it work now? ** Changed in: ghostscript (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- preview latex fails on with pdflatex https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/543266 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
