I'm trying to install a .sty, .cls, and a .bst (bibtex) file for latex. I'm currently using texlive in Ubuntu 10.10. I have the general idea of where to install these but whenever I try to compile the .tex I get an error that says permission is denied to the .cls file, so I'm not sure what's going on.
I've ran the mktexlsr and everything else, but I still get this problem. If I run sudo pdflatex <filename> I wind up compiling a pdf document that I can't access. Not sure if I have to add permissions to the .sty and .cls files after they've been copied.
Additionally, the .sty and .cls files I'm using aren't in the official texlive distribution so I would definitely need to install them myself.
I am totally new to LaTeX. I need to prepare a journal paper regarding my project work. I have some experience in preparing articles using LyX. The Elsevier group of journals has a format which is available as a zip file from [URL].. how to install this in a LaTeX environment like Kile?Is it possible to import this to an environment like LyX?
I am a semi-noob on this and I have problems getting my emacs recognizing .tex as latex and even running latex-mode. Usually when you run latex-mode (M-x : latex-mode) emacs should switch to latex-mode, but nothing happens in my case. The menu bar still show the TeX options, highlighting remains the same etc.
I am running emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.4), this is on a university system so I don't know much about it.

I installed TeXLive on Linux (Fedora 14) but I don't know how to add additional LaTeX packages that are available from CTAN (Comprehensive TeX Archive Network) easily. It seems TeXLive has its own package manager called "tlmgr" but I could not activate it or find it through "yum search". Is there an easy way to install additional Latex packages besides the manual method stated in [URL]..
I'm just texing a little report and I get the following error message: LaTeX Warning: Citation 'tzvp' on page 4 undefined on input line 74 I have made a bibliography in the classic way, i.e.
I need to write a document in japanese using Latex, but i'd like to know what are the steps to do it from scratch. I'm not so familiar with Latex and i really need some advices, especially regarding the packages for the language and all. What are the necessary programs to get? Packages? libraries?
I am using the Gedit LaTeX Plugin 0.2 rc3 on ubuntu 10.04 with gedit 2.30.3. The problem is that it will not make pdf files. I do have rubber installed.
Question how can I update latex packages is there any easy way to do it in linux, such as in windows (miktex for example).I have installed all the TeX-live packages on the ubuntu software center. But I seem to have outdated older packages.03156397135
I was trying to do a school assignment in LaTeX. The assignment involves having the page split into three columns: the first column is for the quote, the second is for a reaction, and the third is for questions. These columns must be able to break in the middle of a row. I was trying to accomplish this using LaTeX.
First, I tried the longtable environment, but that would not allow me to pagebreak in the middle of a row. Then, I tried parcolumns, but for some reason, the second "row" had a huge space between the first two words. Does anyone know of an environment suitable for this kind of work?
I got Kile installed and when I tired to run a template, it wouldn't compile. I ran it thru the cmd line and i see that I'm missing the required packages. I want to install the tucv package [1] and was getting started to do it manually but then I realize I needed to install a handful of other packages. I heard it was easier to install with the Package Manager. I looked at the tut and I'm stuck on finding the apt-line for CTAN.[URL]..
I installed the vim-latex suite. Syntax colors are working great, but the autoindent feature is not working like it works for .html and .f90 files. My .vimrc file is, as far as I can see, correct:
Code: syntax on " REQUIRED. This makes vim invoke Latex-Suite when you open a tex file. filetype plugin on " IMPORTANT: win32 users will need to have 'shellslash' set so that latex " can be called correctly. set shellslash " IMPORTANT: grep will sometimes skip displaying the file name if you " search in a singe file. This will confuse Latex-Suite. Set your grep " program to always generate a file-name. set grepprg=grep -nH $* .....
I'm trying to create a new .cls file for a journal called Bayesian Analysis. They supply a list of files called "latex macros" which I would like to use with Lyx to create the correct format. I've tried lots of things but no luck yet. This is the list of files I can get, Lyx 2.0, texmf, ubuntu 10.10
I'm having trouble opening a pptx (powerpoint tex ie tex as in latex) file with LibreOffice. For the most part, LibreOffice opens the pptx file fine except for the fact that it is not translating certain mathematical symbols right. I really need to be able to open pptx files as many mathematicians are windows users. I figure there is a package or something I need to install but I don't know what it is.....
Our Matlab users met the problem in Ubuntu while using Latex interpreter in Matlab. Namely, eps and pdf files generation out of Matlab plot outputs plot legend and axes lables incorrectly. All the letters are mixed, impression that character spaces are too dense. We can't blame Matlab, since exactly the same examples with the same Matlab version work fine on CentOS. We tested Ubntu 9.10, 10.4 and 10.10 -- same problem. Matlab version R2010b.
In addition, jpg, png generated with no problems. It's eps and pdf only Matlab example: plot(1:1:10) xlabel('example','Interpreter','latex') ylabel('ExAmPlE','Interpreter','latex') a=legend('EXAMPLE example ExAmPle') set(a,'Interpreter','latex','Fontsize',13) print -depsc2 figure1 I am attaching a PDF, looks same as eps, but easier to display.
I'm trying to install Python and a LaTeX editor and can't really get either to work out. For texlive, I used 'sudo apt-get texlive-full', which didn't generate any errors, but I now can't seem to open the application. For Python, I used 'sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install python2.6' which generated the error "Unable to lock directory /var/cache/apt/archives." I tried to remove a lock file that I read about on another post and open up SPM, but the error persisted.
i have installed ubuntu using WUBI, and it was working for the last 4 months. today i was trying to install lineno.sty file for latex files; using synaptic. while installing it some error message related to grub came and after the downloading was finish the system asked for rebooting. when i reboot the system it has gone to grub rescue mode. i have so many files saved in the ubuntu partition, i don't want to loose it.
A few days ago there was a huge TexLive update. Since I've installed the updates I get following error, when running pdfLatex: Code: kpathsea: Running mktexfmt pdflatex.fmt So I guess it can't find pdflatex.fmt, but I don't know what to do against it.
Today I discovered a strange issue regarding LaTeX. I am currently working on my thesis and sometimes edit it on my laptop with F13 x86_64, and others with my office's Mac (Leopard). Fedora has TexLive installed (default Latex distribution) and I believe the Mac has its default distribution as well.
The problem is that the Mac seems to compile the document better (Latex + Bibtex + Latex + dvips + ps2pdf): page distribution looks better for one thing, space is better used. I notice that images (EPS) are rendered with an extra blank space on the bottom when compiling in Linux (which might be responsible for the page's arrangement).
Is there something I can do to fix this? Some option that perhaps the Mac has as a default but must be specified in Linux?
I have some strange behavior in Latex. I have added labels to all of my tables (currently there are 3) and my figure (currently there is only 1). So far I only notice this behavior with tables, though it may happen with figures as well...I will have to add another figure to test that.However, what is happening is that my list of tables is correctly generating the numbers of the tables (which are 3.1, 3.2, and 4.1). In the resulting PDF document, the tables have the correct numbers in the captions as well. The odd thing is that when I attempt to reference them using ef, it is printing the Chapter.Section[.Subsection] number the table is located in instead of the table's number itself.Right now I have two tables inside of Chapter 3 Section 3. They are as follows:
I'm using ubuntu and I'd like to write latex documents. In windows, I was using miktex and texniccenter, but I think these softwares don't work on linux. What are the best softwares in linux to write latex documents, and how to install them ?
When I install the texlive packages (LaTeX installation) in Mint 9 (= Ubuntu 10.04), the pdflatex module is not installed. Yet it's required for producing pdf files from LaTeX editors, for example jEdit with the LaTeX Tools plug-in. pdflatex is not in the Mint/Ubuntu repos.
If i compile my.tex file using the command:latex my.tex I am getting this error:! LaTeX Error: File `pause.sty' not found.Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)
I have a problem with compiling bibliography in Latex running on Debain Jessie. I have even tried to compile the stock example provided by ShareLatex web site, and it still doesn't work.I keep getting same error messages, when I run my own files AND the stock example:
I found no citation commands---while reading file document.aux I found no ibdata command---while reading file document.aux I found no ibstyle command---while reading file document.aux
