Hi, I have no problems compiling to PDF. Anyone else? The error message sounds to me that somehow Emacs cannot find the you TEX installation. Maybe there is something wrong with the paths. If it works from the command line, try starting Emacs from the command line - this will make the command line environment visible to Emacs. If you start Carbon Emacs normally, then stuff in you shell setup is not read any you may end up with a different set of environment settings. - Carsten
