it's not clear to me why a newer parser lib would fail on an older synctex format (whatever the change is) .. sumatra pdf works (last updates ayear ago) works ok
synctex fails with lualatex on windows too. And it fails with with the luatex version 1.06 (which is now in miktex) but not with 1.04 (texlive). I compared the synctex files of both and the problem is that the link to the main tex file is missing at the start. The synctex files refers to a lot positions in input 0 but the file list starts with Input:1:D:/MiKTeX2.9/tex/latex/base/article.cls I added before this line Input:0:G:/Z-Test/./test-utf8.tex and then synchronization worked again. Imho this is a luatex bug. (the texlive synctex starts with number 1 and not 0 Input:1:G:/Z-Test/./test-utf8.tex) -- Ulrike Fischer http://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/
