</span>Howdy,<br class="">
<br class="">
Are you on the luatex list? Ulricke Fisher reported a problem with the latest updated luatex (1.0.6.2) seems to create a bad synctex file---at least on the Windows version. Are you using that bleeding edge version?<br class="">
<br class="">
Good Luck,<br class="">
