  1. win 7 32 bits
  2. texniccenter 2.0 alpha 4
  3. miktex 2.9
  4. Installed ActivePerl 1005 (Perl version 5.10)
  5. PATH Variable where the perl executable is located c:\perl\bin\perl.exe already updated
  6. Created profile in LaTeX, in preprocessor I created two lines:
    • Executable: C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\perltex.exe
    • Arguments: --latex=pdflatex %bm.tex

I get the following error:

From the console:

Perltex> !Undefined control sequence

Perltex> <*> ...thumbsperl.pipe}\makeatother\input c:\users
Perltex>                                \user1\...

Perltex> ? pdflatex: Bad file descriptor

Perltex> Free to wrong pool 2c8a780 not 2cf57ac 
at c:/Perl/Lib/Safe.pm line 125

I have the following tex file:

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{perltex}
\usepackage{thumby}
\thumbySides{two}
\thumbyTotalChapters{10}
\thumbyPageHeight{795}
\thumbyThumbWidth{42.5}
\thumbyForeground{white}
\thumbyBackground{black}
\thumbyNumberFormat{\Huge\textbf{$chapter number}}
\thumbySetup
\begin{document}
\end{document}

Please help me make a profile in Texniccenter that can process documents via PerlTex, it's ok if it's only useful for the thumby package.

The profile should be OK; however, thumby requires the class memoir, so using report gives an error. – egreg Jan 22 at 12:56
