Error Messages

PostScript Error

The generated PostScript is corrupt. To solve this problem, do the following:

Generate PostScript code directly using 'dvips' with the [dvi] option on.
Preview the code using 'ghostview' or 'gs'.
If the error persists, the problem is very likely not related to iTe. Check your '\special' directives or macros which produce '\special', such as PS-Tricks macros.
If there is no PostScript error, the version of 'dvips' may be inconsistent with the version of iTe.
Get the newest version of iTe.
If your version of 'dvips' is older than 5.58, then get a newer version.
If 'dvips' is of a current release, then you found an iTe bug and should file a bug report.

Cannot find all iTe objects

While parsing the (La)TeX source code, not all active iTe objects were found. The most likely reason for this is an inadequate use of the '\ite' directive.

Do not include naked (not contained in an iteblock environment) '\ite' directives from other files via '\input' or '\include'.
Do not rebind the '\ite' macro.

Spurious iTe object in (La)TeX source

While parsing the (La)TeX source, iTe has mistaken an inactive iTe object for an active iTe object.

The reasons could be

You have loaded the iTe package using the 'dvi' or 'graphics' option, for example with '\usepackage[dvi]{ite}'. In this case, all objects are inactive, which is not what you want. Don't use these options when running iTe.
You have used some weird TeX construct, for example '\string\ite', for which iTe's parser is too dumb to see that the '\ite' directive is not expanded.

Argument syntax error

Arguments to an '\ITE' directive is corrupt. A correct syntax should look like

\ITE(123 123 1.3 -10)

for example.

DVI file outdated

The dvi-file does not exist or is older than the (La)TeX source file. Please recompile the source before using iTe again.

Buffer modified

The buffer with the (La)TeX source was modified but not saved. Please save and recompile the source.

Generating PostScript failed

iTe was not able to translate the DVI-file into a PostScript file. Please see the log-buffer for more details.

The reasons for failure could be one of

'dvips' could not be executed, i.e., is not in your search path.
'perl' could not be executed, i.e., is not in your search path.
Versions of files in the iTe distribution are inconsistent. 'ite.el', 'ite.pl', 'ite.sty' and 'ite.ps' must all be of the same version.
iTe was unable to read the (La)TeX log-file.
You did not load the iTe-package at all. Insert 'usepackage{ite}' in the header of the (La)TeX source.
There are no iTe blocks, and thus no active ite objects, in the (La)TeX source.
