I have a .tex file I am attempting to write from a MATLAB environment (2017b) using first latex, then dvips, and finally ps2pdf to create the PDF file. The PDF file is properly created when I run it through TeXWorks, but sends an error from ps2pdf when I try to run it through. I'm not entirely sure what's wrong with the way I send it to the command line. Here is the script I am attempting to run.

Per #Cris Luengo's suggestion of moving to pdflatex rather than using latex/dvips/ps2pdf commands, this worked. Here is the sample code of what worked for a system command.
[~,pdflatexout] = system(['pdflatex.exe -output-directory ' strrep(exampledir,'\','/') ' ' texdoc]);
%Check for errors.
if contains(pdflatexout,'Sorry, but pdflatex.exe did not succeed.') || ...
contains(pdflatexout,'error','IgnoreCase',true)
%Deliver the error code.
error(pdflatexout)
end
I placed this after fclose(fileID) in the original code and deleted all that had originally come after that line.

I have a Urdu Optical character Recognition. When I convert my image text to Unicode and write it in notepad file it shows like "ÌÇ Ûã ˜Ç äíÇ ÝÑ " not in urdu language. Here is my code
disp(native2unicode(rst))
f = fopen('temp.txt', 'w', 'native', 'UTF-8');
s = char(native2unicode(rst));
fprintf(f, ' %s.\r\n', s);
fclose(f);
The following code runs fine on my system. Maybe the added 'UTF-8' parameter helped?
rst='اردو';
disp(native2unicode(rst,'UTF-8'))
s = char(native2unicode(rst,'UTF-8'));
f = fopen('temp.txt', 'w', 'native', 'UTF-8');
fprintf(f, ' %s.\r\n', s);
fclose(f);
I need to remove lines from word "WORDA" to the last "}" before WORDB.
But there are other "}" before. So SED missed the selection.
...
WORDA
{
blah
{
blahblah
...
blahblahblah
}
}
WORDB 0
...
So I'm trying to replace from "WORDA" to "WORDB" with "WORDB" but I lose the "0" at the end... The result is not inserted... All the last line is replaced.
(Of course, this "0" value can be any other number.)
sed.exe -i /WORDA/,/WORDB/c\WORDB\ file
result
...
WORDB
...
but I need:
...
WORDB 0
...
Any idea?
Crude but effective:
sed '/WORDA/,/WORDB/{/WORDB/!d;}' filename
I want to include a gnuplot code inside a markdown page and have Jekyll compile the graph when I save it. The graph image is being saved. But it is removed during jekyll's cleanup. The closest that I have found toward a solution is at Copying generated files from a Jekyll plugin to a site resource folder. However, I don't undersand the overall flow of Jekyll and how I keep static files from being removed. I have added site.static_files << Jekyll::StaticFile.new(site, site.source, path, filename) with no results.
If I create a dummy file outside of the _site folder, Jekyll will keep my file safe inside the _site file. I would rather not have to create that dummy file.
Here is code for my plugin. Any help will be awesome.
class RenderGNUplot < Liquid::Block
def initialize(tag_name, markup, tokens)
super
#markup = markup
#attributes = {}
markup.scan(Liquid::TagAttributes) do |key, value| #attributes[key.to_sym] = value end
end
def gnuplot(commands)
IO.popen("gnuplot", "w") { |io| io.puts commands }
end
def render(context)
site = context.registers[:site]
#file = ""
commands = super
if ( commands =~ /set output "(.*)"/ )
setfile_regex = Regexp.new(/set output "((.*))"/)
filepath = commands[setfile_regex, 1]
#file = File.basename filepath
commands = commands.sub!(commands[setfile_regex], 'set output "_site/media/' + #file +'"' )
p commands
end
gnuplot(commands)
site.static_files << Jekyll::StaticFile.new(site, site.source, "_site/media/", "#{#file}")
# site.static_files << Jekyll::StaticSitemapFile.new(site, site.dest, '/', 'sitemap.xml')
"<object id='' type='image/svg+xml' data='#{site.baseurl}/media/{#file}'>Your browser does not support SVG</object>"
end
end

sorry for my english! I have problem, faced here with such a problem, give the decision:
line 1:0 required (...)+ loop did not match anything at input < E O F
>
This my file, calc.g
grammar calc;
options {
language = Java;
}
rule: statement+;
statement
: expr NEWLINE
| ID '=' expr NEWLINE
| NEWLINE
;
NEWLINE : '\r'? '\n'
;
expr
: multExpression ('+' multExpression |'-' multExpression)*
;
multExpression
: a1=atom ('*' a2=atom | '/' a2=atom)*
;
atom
: ID
| INT
| '(' expr ')'
;
ID : ('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z'|'_') ('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z'|'0'..'9'|'_')*
;
INT : ('1'..'9') ('0'..'9')*
;
this is my main:
ANTLRReaderStream input = new ANTLRReaderStream();
calcLexer lexer = new calcLexer(input);
CommonTokenStream tokens = new CommonTokenStream(lexer);
calcParser parser = new calcParser(tokens);
parser.rule();
It looks like your input is empty: the parser immediately encounters the EOF (end-of-file) where it expects at least one statement.
Try something like this:
ANTLRStringStream input = new ANTLRStringStream("2*42\n");
calcLexer lexer = new calcLexer(input);
CommonTokenStream tokens = new CommonTokenStream(lexer);
calcParser parser = new calcParser(tokens);
parser.rule();
As 280Z28 mentioned in the comment beneath my answer, you should probably force the parser to consume the entire input by adding EOF at the end of your parser's entry point:
rule: statement+ EOF;
and if you want to allow an empty string to be valid input too, change the + to a *;
rule: statement* EOF;
I didn't test it but think you have to add the default EOF token to your grammar:
rule: statement+ EOF!;
Your parser seems to recognize the whole input but at the end there is an EOF but you did not add the corresponding rule to your grammar.
I'm using Matlab to output a multi-page PS file:
print(figure, '-dpsc2', fullfile(folder, [file '.ps']), '-r600', '-append')
and then using Matlab to invoke Ghostscript to convert the resulting PS file to a PDF:
system(['"' gsPath '" -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=' num2str(int32(width*72)) ' \
-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=' num2str(int32(height*72)) ' \
-dPDFFitPage \
-o "' fullfile(folder, [file '.pdf']) '" "' fullfile(folder, [file '.ps']) '"']);
which is just a really hard-to-read way of writing something along the lines of
gswin64c -sDEVICE=pdfwrite ^
-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=100 ^
-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=100 ^
-dPDFFitPage ^
-o "C:\folder\output.pdf" "C:\folder\input.ps"
where I've put in example values for device dimensions and input/output paths. When I use this code to print a single figure (one page) to PDF, everything works perfectly. However, when printing multiple figures (multiple pages) to PDF, Ghostscript throws an error:
GPL Ghostscript 9.06 (2012-08-08)
Copyright (C) 2012 Artifex Software, Inc. All rights reserved.
This software comes with NO WARRANTY: see the file PUBLIC for details.
**** Unable to open the initial device, quitting.
Now, if I remove the -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=100 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=100 part of my Ghostscript command and again attempt to print multiple figures to a PDF, it works fine (except for the page size being different than what I want).

Has anyone else run into a similar problem and found a workaround for this issue? One of the keys here is that I need to be able to control the page size of the PDF produced. Thanks!
Below is an example that should run fine. First we create a multi-page PS file:
fname = 'test';
if exist([fname '.ps'], 'file'), delete([fname '.ps']); end
hfig = figure;
for i=1:10
plot(cumsum(rand(100,1)-0.5))
drawnow
print(hfig, '-dpsc2', '-append', [fname '.ps'])
end
close(hfig)
Next we convert it to PDF using Ghostscript, and properly crop the figures:
gs_path = 'C:\Program Files\gs\gs9.07\bin\gswin64c.exe';
gs_opts = '-dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q';
% ps2pdf
cmd = sprintf('"%s" %s -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFFitPage -o %s %s', ...
gs_path, gs_opts, [fname '.pdf'], [fname '.ps']);
disp(cmd); system(cmd);
% get bbox
cmd = sprintf('"%s" %s -sDEVICE=bbox %s', ...
gs_path, gs_opts, [fname '.pdf']);
disp(cmd); [~,out] = system(cmd);
out = textscan(out, '%s', 'Delimiter','');
bbox = regexp(out{1}, '^%%BoundingBox: (\d+) (\d+) (\d+) (\d+)','tokens','once');
bbox = str2double(vertcat(bbox{:}));
bbox = [min(bbox(:,1:2)) max(bbox(:,3:4))];
% crop to bounding box
cmd = sprintf(['"%s" %s -o %s -sDEVICE=pdfwrite' ...
' -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=%d -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=%d -dFIXEDMEDIA' ...
' -c "<</PageOffset [-%d -%d]>> setpagedevice" -f %s'], ...
gs_path, gs_opts, [fname '_cropped.pdf'], ...
bbox(3)-bbox(1), bbox(4)-bbox(2), bbox(1), bbox(2), [fname '.pdf']);
disp(cmd); system(cmd);
