Hi Heiko, > in comp.text.tex there is a discussion about mktextex. > The following test file for plainTeX shows the > primitives that calls mktextex (if MKTEXTEX is enabled): On win32, MAKE_TEX_TEX_BY_DEFAULT should have been 0, since we have not mktextex.exe. I had set it to be 1 by mistake. I don't know on the other platforms. Best regards, Akira
