[texpoint-users] Texpoint configuration

Tue Dec 4 23:19:05 PST 2007

Hi
Well, here's my problem. I went through your website's instructions 
for installation. I found that it needs MikTex and Ghostscript. Well, 
I already had Latex and checked the version command and it worked but 
mistakenly I thought that Ghostscript is not needed (but it was 
actually Ghostview that you had mentioned that is not 
necessary).  Now you can guess what happened. I checked 
Texpoint/configure/information and certainly it failed running 
"gswin32c.exe." Well, my next move was downloading AFPL 853 version 
of Ghostscript as recommended. I installed it and I then opened 
control panel/system/Advanced/enviroment variables and I added the 
directory path of Ghostscript to PATH. Later, I checked gswin32c 
-version at command line and it worked well. I opened Powerpoint and 
I tried to add a display mode equation and it failed with the same 
message that Ghostscript returned error. I checked 
Texpoint/configure/information and it was still showing that I do not 
have Ghostscript directory added to PATH. I tried Reset Texpoint in 
my Office 2007 panel. It did not change anything. I tried pressing 
"Reinitialize" on configure window and it also did not do any change. 
I am pasting the information in the following. I would be very 
grateful if anybody could help me make display mode work.
Oh, I just remembered another issue. I would be very happy if you 
could help me with this, too. Here is the problem. When I try the 
inline equation and I press "Texify" button it texifies the equation 
BUT it uses the same font I am using for text, which is Arial in most 
of the cases. Well, I really like it with nice Latex font. How can I do this?
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Kiarash,
P.S.: I would be very grateful if you could take a second look at the 
information and let me know if anything else is wrong, so that I can 
fix it as soon as possible. You know, I really appreciate if can be 
done very soon.

If all external commands are OK, TexPoint is fully functional. In 
case a 'FAILED' is shown, some features will not work. You may want 
to install the indicated software and/or check the global (on Mac: 
the bash) path configuration. Please also check the manual for details.
