utility file analysis : another run needed
Hi, When I launch texexec --pdf ....., it runs several times (6 or 7) before ending with the following message .... : "utility file analysis : another run needed" The pdf seems to be correct but it takes long to be generated ..... Any idea of the problem ? jean-pierre
Hi, from your message it is difficult to distill what happens. Could you please give more details concerning the setup of your source. May be a look into the jobname.log file can give you also a clue what is going on. Willi jean-pierre le narzul wrote:

it looks like you have some oscillation going on; one way to find out is texexec --pdf yourfile copy yourfile.tuo yourfile-old.tuo texexec --pdf yourfile --once texutil --ref yourfile diff yourfile-old.tuo yourfile.tuo it should show differences oscillation can take place when decisions are made based on previous runs (but only in tricky situations where the multi pass info gets loose from the target); it's one reason why there will never be real automated high quality typesetting -) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
