Hi Folks,
I am pretty new to textmate and I already love the way how to typeset only with textmate and to preview the PDF.
I now tried pdfsync and can't get it to work. I have my preambel and include all my chapters with input. After typesetting, I highlighted a word with an included file and used "Show in PDF-Viewer (pdfsync)", but nothing happens. How ould I get this to work, so that I can jump from the code to the pdf and vice versa?
Thanks in advance Christian

I don't believe that the pdf viewer included inTextMate works with pdfsync. Try using Skim. Go to Latex preferences and set "view in" to Skim. In Skim preferences, set Sync Preset to TextMate. That should do it!

Thanks for the help. Now I am able to switch from the PDF to the code in Textmate. But how could switch from code to the PDF using Skim???
Thanks Christian
Christian,
ctrl-option-command-o will switch from code to pdf. It is the show in PDF viewer (pdfsync) command under the latex menu.

That doesnt work. Should it not be somethimh with a click. What latex
menu do you mean?
The LaTeX entry in the Bundles menu of TextMate.
control-option-command-o
*is* the correct sequence to jump from wherever you are in TextMate to the corresponding place in Skim. Just to summarise the above thread: you need to have
\usepackage{pdfsync}
in the preamble of your LaTeX document, you need Skim to be set as your pdf viewer in LaTeX preferences (Bundles => LaTeX => Preferences... in TextMate), and you need to tell Skim that you're working in TextMate (In Skim go to Skim => Preferences... => Sync, and select "TextMate" from the list of presets).
That should be enough to give you forward and backward synching: shift-command-click for pdf=>code, and control-option-command-o for code => pdf.
Cheers, Paul

In addition, there is the excellent "Latex Watch" Command (bound to ctrl+cmd+w on my machine) which will automatically update the PDF upon a save (which you can set to automatically take place upon TM loosing focus in the TM preferences). In this workflow, you only need cmd+tab to update the pdf and switch to Skim but it assumes that you are already viewing the appropriate section of your pdf.

Thanks Paul for the clarification. Now it works fine and I am to pace around...

I'm not sure if I'm missing something here, but I can get the other way (from TM to skim), but I can;t see how to get from Skim back to TM. I know this has been covered before, but thought I'd take the chance to ask as the thread was live...
Thanks, Nigel
