1. Open a command window. (I don't have access to a Win 7 box right now, but Start > Run > cmd is how you would do it in earlier versions.) 2. cd to the directory containing the file (which I'll call 'myfile.tex'). 3. Execute 'pdflatex myfile.tex'. If Windows complains that it can't find pdflatex.exe, you'll need to supply the path to it. (I'm pretty sure the MiKTeX installer adds MiKTeX to the system command path, but your mileage may vary.) This will create a few new files, including 'myfile.pdf'. 4. Open 'myfile.pdf' in your viewer (I'm guessing Acrobat Reader). FYI, pdflatex converts a .tex file directly to a PDF file, whereas ps2pdf generates a DVI output file, converts that to a Postscript file, then converts that to a PDF file. The third route (dvipdfm) generates a DVI file and then converts that directly to a PDF file. Did you try that route and also get missing spaces? Paul
