+
+ <h2>PostScript Error</h2>
+
+ The generated PostScript is corrupt. To solve this
+ problem, do the following:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Generate PostScript code directly using 'dvips'
+ with the [dvi] option on.
+ <li>Preview the code using 'ghostview' or 'gs'.
+ <li>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.
+ <li>If there is no PostScript error, the version of
+ 'dvips' may be inconsistent with the version of iTe.
+ <li>Get the newest version of iTe.
+ <li>If your version of 'dvips' is older than 5.58,
+ then get a newer version.
+ <li>If 'dvips' is of a current release, then you found an iTe bug and should file a bug report.
+ </ul>
+
+ <h2>Cannot find all iTe objects</h2>
+
+ 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.
+ <ul>
+ <li>Do not include naked (not contained in an iteblock
+ environment) '\ite' directives from other files via '\input' or
+ '\include'.
+ <li>Do not rebind the '\ite' macro.
+ </ul>
+
+ <h2>Spurious iTe object in (La)TeX source</h2>
+
+ While parsing the (La)TeX source, iTe has mistaken
+ an inactive iTe object for an active iTe object.
+ <p>
+ The reasons could be
+ <ul>
+ <li>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.
+ <li>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.
+ </ul>
+
+ <h2>Argument syntax error</h2>
+
+ Arguments to an '\ITE' directive is
+ corrupt. A correct syntax should look like
+ <pre>\ITE(123 123 1.3 -10)</pre>
+ for example.
+
+ <h2>DVI file outdated</h2>
+
+ The dvi-file does not exist or is older than the (La)TeX source file. Please
+ recompile the source before using iTe again.
+
+ <h2>Buffer modified</h2>
+
+ The buffer with the (La)TeX source was modified
+ but not saved. Please save and recompile the source.
+
+ <h2>Generating PostScript failed</h2>
+
+ iTe was not able to translate the DVI-file into a PostScript file.
+ Please see the log-buffer for more details.
+ <p>
+ The reasons for failure could be one of
+ <ul>
+ <li>'dvips' could not be executed, i.e., is not in your search path.
+ <li>'perl' could not be executed, i.e., is not in your search path.
+ <li>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.
+ <li>iTe was unable to read the (La)TeX log-file.
+ <li>You did not load the iTe-package at all. Insert
+ 'usepackage{ite}' in the header of the (La)TeX source.
+ <li>There are no iTe blocks, and thus no active ite objects,
+ in the (La)TeX source.
+ </ul>
