Question

I am trying to get pstricks to work, but to no avail. I am using Miktex and I downloaded the package from it the package manager. But when I try to build it, it always fails:

Anything special I need to do?

Thanks Editing:

Here is the code:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\begin{pspicture}(4,5)
\psframe(0.7,2)(3.3,3)
\rput(2,2.5){First Example}
\end{pspicture}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

Answer 1

I can’t see from the results of the partial log, but it looks like pstricks is loading OK, since it got to this: you can see the results of the check, and it will display the pstricks package that it used. I see two problems. First you need

\usepackage{graphics}

-, DVI , TeXworks. - LaTex + DVI + PDF. pdflatex pstricks (., , http://www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~fouvry/how-do-I.html), dvi . pdflatex, :

\usepackage{epstopdf}

, , , (. - ). , , , , , , (, ).

Answer 2

PSTricks, PDFTricks.

, PS, PDF. TeXNic Center LaTeX = > PS = > PDF

TeXlipse , , "latex.exe + dvips.exe + ps2pdf.exe" .
