Problem with pdfview/pdfopen/pdfclose in LyX 1.6.3 + Acrobat 8.1.x + Win 7

2009-08-13 Thread Thomas Winkler

Hi all,

I have a small problem with my still almost clean setup of LyX 1.6.3  
(installed with LyXWinInstaller) on Windows 7 Pro (x64) and Acrobat 8.1.x.


If I click the View PDF button, the PDF file is generated in the temp  
folder, but nothing much happens. Well, nothing visible at least - in  
taskmgr, an acrobat.exe process does appear and eats up more than 50% CPU  
(and, no matter which document I convert, around 15MB of RAM). Even if I  
leave this running for an extended period of time, nothing happens.  
Opening Acrobat beforehand does not help. I can open the generated PDF any  
other way without problems though.


Any ideas, anyone?

Thanks,
Thomas

Hi all,

the topic posted right after this
(http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg75792.html) just
got me checking my file format associations, and voilà, there I see that
not pdfview, but acrobat is set as the PDF viewer. I don't know why the
installer set this wrong, but now that I replaced it with pdfview,
everything works fine...
