Re: org-latex preview on Windows

[Ypo]

Hi Jeremie

In my emacs it works great. Even org-fragtog that allows you to edit in an interactive manner.

- Just in case it could be helpfult, these are the lines in my init file that I can find related to LaTeX:

(custom-set-variables

 '(org-preview-latex-image-directory "~/borrar/ltximg/")

 '(preview-TeX-style-dir "~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-13.0.11/latex" t))

- I installed LaTeX following these instructions:

- I have edited the Windows System Variable "Path" and added to it:

C:\Program Files\MiKTeX\miktex\bin\x64\

I hope that helps
