Subject: TexShop graphics input
From: "Charles Pugh"

Hello.
Running TexShop 1.40 on a file such as
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
copy1
\begin{figure}[htbp]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics{expt2.eps}
\caption{{\bf default}}
\label{default}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
copy2
\end{document}
TexShop is able to compile the file. But the preview window does not
show the picture, nor does the printed version. (It does show and
print the text, and it leaves space for the picture.)
TexShop is able to open the eps document, expt2.eps, display it on
the screen, convert it to pdf format, and print it from the preview
pane. (The original picture was made in Illustrator 10, and also
re-made in Canvas 8.)
The figure's file is then saved in the folder that contains the
original tex file and is converted to a pdf file, expt2.pdf
When that file name is substituted in place of expt2.eps, giving
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
copy1
\begin{figure}[htbp]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics{expt2.pdf}
\caption{{\bf default}}
\label{default}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
copy2
\end{document}
the program protests that it's a latex error and it can't find the
Bounding Box info.
I've tried using other document classes, such amsart. No luck. The
typeset settings are Latex and pdftex, although I tried other
combinations with no better success. I also tried the TexShop macro
for inserting an eps figure, in place of the previous figure
paragraph, getting
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
copy1
\begin{figure}[htbp]
\begin{center}
\epsfile{file=3Dexpt2,scale=3D0.8}
\caption{{\bf default}}
\label{default}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
copy2
\end{document}
But then the program complains that it doesn't know the epsfile
command. Surely, I am doing something silly, but I don't see what.
Thanks in advance, Charles Pugh

Howdy,
I assume you're running pdflatex. Pdftex won't accept .eps directly.
you should add the package
\usepackage{epstopdf}
and it should work (assuming you have the default --shell-escape
option in the default pdflatex program set). You can also just drop
the .eps file onto TeXShop and it will get converted to .pdf; the
include the graphic using \includegraphic{expt2} without the .pdf
extension and that should work also.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Herb Schulz

Hello!
I am one among the people hit by the change of behaviour of
\magnification
in plain pdftex. A workaround suggested by Bruno Voisin (for letter
paper)
was to replace \magnification=3D2000 with
\magnification=3D2000
\input pdftexconfig
I have just found a little problem and I am reporting it as a warning
to my fellow residual plain-TeXers: you have to be careful if you also
load the package graphicx.tex :
this works:
\input graphicx
\magnification=3D2000
\input pdftexconfig
but this does not work:
\magnification=3D2000
\input pdftexconfig
\input graphicx
It seems that graphicx undoes something that pdftexconfig fixes.
So we have to load graphicx first.
Best regards,
Gianluca Gorni

Let me make it clear that I love TeXShop dearly and cannot imagine
civilized life without it. I use it for all of my TeX work, and I do
**everything** in TeX. That said, there are some remaining niggles
that I would like to put forward.
1. The Console -- why is it necessary to mouse around for the console
window for the document currently being typeset? Yes, I know that I
can cycle through **all** the windows currently open in TeXShop, but
that gets tedious and error-prone if you have four or five documents
open.
2. Magnify/reduce -- this desperately needs a keyboard shortcut;
mousing-around should not be necessary to get this to happen.
3. Log files -- is it absolutely necessary to generate log files
**all the time?** There should be a preference to turn this off --
after all, that is what the console is for, and it it irritating to
generate useless files that accumulate and that must be cleaned up
periodically. Yes, I know that you can cleanup the files for the
current document, and that is fine as long as you remember to do it,
but why be forced to do that in the first place? The log file serves
little or no purpose: it is not like a LaTeX aux file that is
generated to be reused if necessary.
Again, I love the program, but having used it a lot, I find some
aspects of it less than ideal -- which the rest of the program is to
my mind.

A couple of other niggles (all regarding the preview window):
- Make it so that, in multiple page mode, the following/ previous =20
page buttons and shortcuts move really one page up/down, while =20
keeping the position in the page current (like viewing the bottom =20
part of the page), instead of selecting automaticaly the top portion =20
of each page. I've not found any setting in the preferences affecting =20=
this in multiple page mode.
- Similarly, in multiple page mode, not have the top portion of the =20
page selected after each typeset of a document. At present, if I'm =20
viewing a specific position of a page in the preview window, and then =20=
press Typeset, after the typeset operation is completed the preview =20
window is automatically repositioned at the top of the page. That =20
shouldn't happen IMO.
- It may be that my PowerBook is too slow for Tiger, but when the =20
preview window is updated following a typeset, I can see in some =20
circumstances the page to be (i) first positioned flushright in the =20
window (i.e. with the right border of the page at the right edge of =20
the window) and (ii) then displaced laterally to match the previously =20=
selected lateral positioning.
I also hope that, at some point, either through some sort of bundle =20
mechanism or in another way, some GUI settings will become document-=20
specific, like: size and screen position of the editing and preview =20
window, font and size in the editing window, magnification, layout =20
(single/multiple/double) and positioning in the preview window, =20
printer and page setup (portrait/landscape) for that printer, etc. =20
And possibly the engine, etc.

Hola,
Well, I was sure there was a silly reason for the problem. I was
running pdftex on the file, not pdflatex.
But there is no option for pdflatex in the TexShop release, 1.40. Do
you know how to add one. (I am a former Textures user, and have no
experience with unix.)

Howdy,
I have a feeling that this will take a bit of time to overcome since =20
Apple's PDFKit (is that the right one?) is now being used for the =20
Preview and those are the default behaviors. Let's hope it becomes =20
easy to override them.

I'd guess this is because PDFKit tries to display the page but not =20
all the fonts are loaded yet. Are you using microtype or XeTeX? In =20
those cases I've had to wait several seconds before ANYTHING is =20
displayed on my old 550MHz Powerbook.

One more thing...
I've noted before that the OgreKit Find Panel now correctly selects =20
the Find text when called up (e.g., via Cmd-F) but tabbing to the =20
Replace text still DOESN'T select that text and, I believe it should.
I think I'm getting to the point where I've customized so many things =20=
in TeXShop that what is default and what is ``mine'' is getting very =20
blurred! I really find TeXShop indispensable.
One final note. Have you noticed that in Tiger selecting a word with =20
a double click (other means don't seem to work for me - bug?) and =20
typing Ctl-Cmd-D brings up an Oxford Dictionary definition? Very =20
neat! I've moved my shortcut for the ``Find Previous Tab'' macro =20
(used to find bullet ``tabs'' in my completion list) to Ctl-Cmd-G to =20
stop interference with that nice feature.
Good Luck,

Howdy,
Run the LaTeX option with the pdftex engine checked under the Typeset
Menu; this runs pdflatex.
You can also put the line
%!TEX TS-program =3D pdflatex
(note the spaces around the =3D sign!) at the head of the file and
pdflatex will automatically be run when you Typeset with Cmd-T.

Make it one to three seconds on my PowerBook 1GHz 1GB, but still =20
that's annoying. In case of font family changes within a page, I can =20

In a couple of weeks I should migrate back, for a few days =20

SubEtha is great.. but it is for *simultaneous* editing. For this to
work you would have to leave a 'server' up all the time with SubEtha
running and anyone editing would need to connect to that server and
edit the shared document. Nice but not always possible.
What Word provides is a nice facility for *sequential* editing. If the
collaborators are making changes on two different copies of the
document at the same time Word does little to help you merge those
changes.
CVS/Subversion is the way to go but I found the setup difficult. One
of the coauthors on my last paper is a professor in a different
department. We don't have access to the same servers and it is
therefore hard to setup a CVS repository (I ended up checking out a
copy and sending it to him via email). What would be really nice is a
WebDav solution, but we don't have that available for security
reasons.
It seems to me that the academic community needs a SourceForge system
(it needs to allow private groups and I'm not sure SF does that).

I don't understand. You can set up CVS so it can be accessed from
anywhere. All you need is a new user and password for each person
(although I agree that CVS setup is difficult...I have a server
running, and I'm sure it could be set up better.)

We face the same problems here. After some discussion, our computing
support people set up a separate CVS server with a couple of scripts
that allow users to create CVS-only accounts for collaborators on
that server only. We still have to deal with CVS setup, which is
really painful. Subversion promises to be much easier for these
purposes, in that it supports authentication and user naming
independent of *nix UIDs.

Given that research work in progress is often confidential, who would
be responsible for breaches? That's the problem that always comes up
with such a service is suggested.

Setting up cvs shouldn't be too hard. On any unix (including Macos)
all that is needed is a group writable directory and a unix group that
contains the users with cvs commit privileges. This can be done on a
per project basis (one main cvs directory with subdirectories of each
project). To set it up, just make the main cvs directory with
cvs init -d CVSDIRECTORY
Then for each project cd to an *empty* directory and
mkdir PROJECTNAME
$cvs import -m 'Initial import.' -d CVSDIRECTORY PROJECTNAME start
That's it. The users can now use ssh to checkout and commit.

Right. The problem is that I have multiple groups and don't have them
isolated. Everybody had to have access to the main directory with rw
privs (maybe x, I don't recall). It's been a while, and it's not a
major concern for me, but I recall that it wasn't clear how to box
off the separate projects so they could only access stuff within
their project. I got mixed up who had to have privs in each place and
just made them blanket (single group, multiple projects). This is a
rare instance where I'd really like a GUI to set it up. I touch it so
rarely that I never recall how to do it and spend a lot of time
relearning.

I don't know a lot about CVS, but wouldn't ACLs (access control
lists) make this task quite easy?
Just a thought, correct me if that's nonsense...

To avoid this behaviour you set preview mode to "single page". This
also the recommended mode when using Flashmode.
I have written two simple Applescripts to switch between these two
modes, they will be posted separately.

Stephen and others,
I read your suggestions, and the resulting thread, with interest.
Several of these issues
are on my to do list. Thanks for writing up these issues.
The problem of "Script Editor" capturing TeXShop files
appeared on one of my machines. There are no Tiger changes
which should call this, since TeXShop has written files with type TEXT
and creator TeXs (registered with Apple) for many years. According to
Google, other programs have also run into this problem.
I'll get back to all of these matters after I deliver the last
lecture in my
geometry course, write the final, grade the final, correct an
undergraduate thesis, and etc.
You know how this goes.
Dick

Er =E2=80=A6 Happens a lot of time to me.

Howdy,
I've had no problem with either of them in OS X 10.4.1 and TeXShop
2.03. I did have to change the keyboard shortcut for `Find Previous
Tab' so that it wouldn't interfere with calling up a dictionary
lookup through the OS. Try to download a recent copy of
CommandCompletion.zip (I've changed to .zip compression) at my
download site, , and see if that
makes a difference.
Good Luck,
Herb Schulz
