Comment 1 for bug 1237909

I don't think the path variable is the problem -- if the plugin can be
enabled, it found the applications.

When you generate a preview, can you open the latex log in the dialog to
see if there is any error there?

If not check %TMP%/zim.log to see if there is an error output there.

Regards,

Jaap
