Problem with "Render Latex" on Windows 7

Postby Guest » Sun Mar 28, 2010 3:17 pm

I'm having a problem with the "Extensions->Render->LaTeX formulae" using Inkscape 0.47 on a Windows 7 machine. Whenever I run the command, I get the error:

The procedure entry point
??0DrawableFont@Magick@@QAE@ABV?basic_string@DU?char_traits@D@std@@V?allocator@D@2@@std@@W4StyleType@MagickLib@@KW4StretchType@5@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library CORE_RL_Magick++_.dll

After I acknowledge the error, the LaTeX string does render as expected.

I get the same error regardless of whether or not I am using the latest version of GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick.

Thanks for your help!

Update: after copying the relevant DLLs from the graphicsmagick directory to the Inkscape directory, I am no longer having the error with CORE_RL_Magick++_.dll. However, I am now getting:

Problem during opening C:\Program Files (x86)\pstoedit\drvmagick.dll:

Problem during opening of pstoedit driver plugin: C:\Program Files (x86)\pstoedit\drvmagick.dll. This is no problem as long the driver in this library is not needed. Possibly you need to install further libraries and/or extend the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (*nix) or PATH (Windows) environment variables.


I have tried reinstalling pstoedit and have double checked that it appears in my PATH environment variable. Are there any other libraries that I need to install? Again, the LaTeX formulae render without issue - the problem is that Inkscape keeps reporting errors.

Thanks!

Bump. Does anyone have ideas on this? Or could possibly point me to the correct forum?

Thanks again!

Remove the drvmagick.dll file from the pstoedit directory. It works for me.

For me this problem was solved by installing ImageMagick6.9.3.2-Q8(x86) from http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php instead of using GraphicsMagick. Installed on C: drive in a folder named C:\ImageMagick693Q8 to avoid having issues with spaces. Make sure ImageMagick is in your path, and you may want to remove GraphicsMagick from the path. :tool_selector:
