I. CHANGES FROM UPSTREAM
|
|
|
|
Latexmk almost works out of the box. Two changes have been made to
|
|
conform to Fedora conventions. First, the default DVI, PostScript, and
|
|
PDF previewers have been changed to 'xdg-open'; see below for more
|
|
information. Second, the site-wide configuration file is
|
|
/etc/latexmk.conf only, as opposed to the list of names searched by the
|
|
original latexmk.
|
|
|
|
II. PREVIEWERS
|
|
|
|
The command xdg-open views a file using the viewer selected by the user
|
|
for that type of file. See the xdg-mime(1) command for more
|
|
information. Unfortunately, the use of xdg-open precludes the updating
|
|
of the previewing application, as latexmk cannot know which application
|
|
is doing the previewing. It also breaks viewing of landscape documents
|
|
for some previewers. For best results, you should customize latexmk for
|
|
the particular previewers you intend to use. Following are the settings
|
|
for some commonly used previewers, to be placed in the site, user, or
|
|
project configuration file. Note that an update method of 1 means that
|
|
there is no way for latexmk to cause the program to refresh; you have to
|
|
take some action of your own to see changes to the document.
|
|
|
|
A. DVI PREVIEWERS
|
|
|
|
1. xdvi
|
|
|
|
$dvi_previewer = 'start xdvi';
|
|
$dvi_previewer_landscape = 'start xdvi -paper usr';
|
|
$dvi_update_method = 2;
|
|
|
|
2. pxdvi
|
|
|
|
$dvi_previewer = 'start pxdvi';
|
|
$dvi_previewer_landscape = 'start pxdvi -paper usr';
|
|
$dvi_update_method = 2;
|
|
|
|
3. kdvi
|
|
|
|
$dvi_previewer = 'start kdvi';
|
|
$dvi_previewer_landscape = 'start kdvi';
|
|
$dvi_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
B. POSTSCRIPT PREVIEWERS
|
|
|
|
1. gv
|
|
|
|
$ps_previewer = 'start gv -watch';
|
|
$ps_previewer_landscape = 'start gv -swap -watch';
|
|
$ps_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
2. evince
|
|
|
|
$ps_previewer = 'start evince -w';
|
|
$ps_previewer_landscape = 'start evince -w';
|
|
$ps_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
3. kghostview
|
|
|
|
$ps_previewer = 'start kghostview';
|
|
$ps_previewer_landscape = 'start kghostview --orientation=landscape';
|
|
$ps_update_method = 1;
|
|
|
|
If you can remember to set the "Watch File" option in
|
|
kghostview, then instead set:
|
|
|
|
$ps_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, there appears to be no command line argument to
|
|
set the "Watch File" option.
|
|
|
|
C. PDF PREVIEWERS
|
|
|
|
1. gv
|
|
|
|
$pdf_previewer = 'start gv -watch';
|
|
$pdf_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
2. evince
|
|
|
|
$pdf_previewer = 'start evince -w';
|
|
$pdf_update_method = 0;
|
|
|
|
3. kghostview
|
|
|
|
$pdf_previewer = 'start kghostview';
|
|
$pdf_update_method = 1;
|
|
|
|
See the remark on the "Watch File" option above.
|
|
|
|
4. kpdf
|
|
|
|
$pdf_previewer = 'start kpdf;
|
|
$pdf_update_method = 1;
|
|
|
|
The "Watch File" remark above for kghostview applies to kpdf also.
|
|
|
|
5. acroread
|
|
|
|
$pdf_previewer = 'start acroread';
|
|
$pdf_update_method = 1;
|
