Lebedev Physical Institute. From: "Maksim Stolyarov" Date: Wed, 10 Jan 1996 17:26:35 +0300 (MSK) X-Mailer: Mail/@ [v2.40 FreeBSD] Subject: Answer to LaTeX-fmt problem. Lines: 43 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk According to David E. O'Brian & Paul T. Root !> This is TeX, Version 3.1415 (C version 6.1) !> (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) That was exactly the output messages I've got for the first time for something like orlik{137} latex mydoc.tex If mydoc.tex == plain TeX and I use tex mydoc.tex everything is OK. SOLUTION: remake LaTeX format file: ^^^^^^^^ From initex ManPage: Here is how you can ask iinniitteexx to prepare format files for several major packages: ... For llaatteexx: _i_n_i_t_e_x _'_l_p_l_a_i_n _\_d_u_m_p_' _m_v _l_p_l_a_i_n_._f_m_t _l_a_t_e_x_._f_m_t ... Do the above as root in /usr/local/lib/texmf/ini and the following should go OK (I've done that myself some time ago). Best regards, Maksim. --- Maksim N.
