I am currently using sbTeX and it seems to work fine. But .. dosTeX is better, I may switch to dosTeX and see if it will work with my previewer. Is anyone encounter this problem before? Oh, BTW, my computer is a PC XT. I don't have the source for both sbTeX and my previewer either. at the risk of confusing the situation further, can I suggest you also look at emTeX? this has its own previewer in the distribution (a good one). also, do you have the latest sbTeX (sbtex30)? Wayne Sullivan does a lot of work on it, and it may be that your difficulty goes away in later releases just by chance. sebastian -- Sebastian Rahtz S.Rahtz@uk.ac.soton.ecs (JANET) Computer Science S.Rahtz@ecs.soton.ac.uk (Bitnet) Southampton S09 5NH, UK S.Rahtz@sot-ecs.uucp (uucp)
