Hi All;

Sorry for the late answer. I did check the paths for the converters, but I
couldn't find anything. In windows installation, the "scripts" folder which
contains the converters, is inside of "Resources" i tried the change the
path name, but i ended up getting the same error.

the original command:
python -tt $$s/scripts/fig2pdftex.py $$i $$o

i tried to change to
python -tt $$s/resources/scripts/fig2pdftex.py $$i $$o
or
python -tt $$s/Resources/scripts/fig2pdftex.py $$i $$o

but it didn't work.

I appreciate for your help,

Guven

I thought may be the mistake is in the converter files

I often (not always, but very often) get this error message (@XP). It is
usually not that important though, because the output is often correctly
generated. I sometimes think it has to do with updating a dvi which is
viewed by yap, but to be honest, I don't have a clue what is wrong.
