This worked for me on two different 15' MacPro Retina, mid 2015, El Capitan.ġ. Now at the end of this file, right above the last line exec '$CWD/bin/inkscape' ' ' add the paths that you extracted from step 1 and 2.įor example I should add the line: PATH=$PATH:/Library/TeX/texbin:/opt/local/binĪfter all these steps, you should be able to open 1 inkscape and type latex formulas by going to Extension->Render->LaTex. With your desired editor, open (with sudo) the following file: /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/script.Now similarly find the PATH for pstoedit. I used macports here to to install this, and it worked for me. However, I tried installing it from a tar ball and it didn't work (probably cause I didn't have all the dependencies). pstoedit does not exists by default in the MacTex, so you have to install it.These two apps are usually installed with the MacTex installation, so there shouldn't be any need for installation here.įor example here I get for both of them: /Library/TeX/texbin. Find the PATH to latex and dvips by typing the following in a terminal: which, and the write down the paths.The general solution is that you have to add the PATH for latex, dvips, and pstoedit to the paths in the app. This is what I did (finding every piece from different sources) to fix this problem. I encountered this problem coming from linux, where you could just easily go to Extension->Render->LaTex and type your latex formula.
