Betreff: [Bug 1237909] Re: ZIM Equation Plugin Windows Error Message

Derek, Simon:

I had the same problem with Simon on a Windows 8 64bit machine with a freshly installed MikTeX 2.9.
I walked through the same process (manually running the dvipng command in the command line and let MikTeX install the missing package). Now the equations can be generated properly.

The missing thing pointed out by MikTeX was:

fonts\map\tt2pf\ttfonts.map

which is a part of the zhmetrics  package.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Shih-Yuan

Title:
  ZIM Equation Plugin Windows Error Message

Status in Zim desktop wiki:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I am running Zim release 0.60 on a Windows 7 - 64 bit host. I'd like
  to use the plugin 'Insert Equation'. To do so, I have installed the
  basic Miktex package release 2.9.4813. I can activate the plugin in
  the plugins list, since the dependencies are fulfilled (latex and
  dvipng are installed). Now when I want to insert an equation the
  following happens:

  a) I click on 'Preview': An empty graph with a red cross is created
  b) I click on 'OK': An error message pops up: 'An error occurred while generating the image. Do you want to save the source text anyway?'

  I have tried different Zim releases without success. Do you have any
  ideas? Maybe I have to modify the Windows path variables
  (https://answers.launchpad.net/zim/+question/99561)? If so, what do I
  have exactly to do?

  Thanks for your help,
  Simon
