[ESS] ess-makePDF and Adobe Reader 7

[Kiermeier, Andreas (PIRSA - SARDI)]

Ross,

I think this is because Acrobat Reader basically locks the file - I have
the same problem.

The solution is to use Ghostview, which you can get from
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/.  You will need to download both
ghostscript (I use AFPL) and gsview.  Install ghostscript first and then
gsview.  The only downside is that there is no support for the
bookmarks.

Cheers,

Andreas

Subject: [ESS] ess-makePDF and Adobe Reader 7

On Windows XP using Adobe reader 7, I need to close the current file
("namestem.pdf") before creating a new version of this file. Is there a
way around this using Adobe Reader or if not, are there other pdf
viewers for Windows that allow this?

Thanks
