Description

With the AMC-TXT input in annex, I can generate as many copies as required, and the LaTeX compilation works, but if I generate more than 5, the "calculer les mises en page" does not work.

I use AMC 1.1.0 (svn: 1075) on ubuntu 12.04

I get «Aucune mise en page n'a été fabriquée. Ne faites pas passer l'examen avant d'avoir réglé le problème, sinon vous ne pourrez pas utiliser AMC pour la correction.»

And the log windows shows

Unknown dim: -77645sp at /usr/lib/AMC/perl/AMC-meptex.pl line 75, <SRC> line 3978.
  • What happens ?
  • What can I do ?

Thanks

This bug does not show on my system (even on a fresh virtualbox with lubuntu 12.04 and AMC 1.1.0 from the PPA)...
Can you send me the whole project directory and a log file produced by AMC in debugging mode?

Workaround: I changed "\documentclass[a4paper]" to "\documentclass[letterpaper]"

Origanally, I got this message:

Unknown dim: -484817sp at /usr/lib/AMC/perl/AMC-meptex.pl line 75, <SRC> line 78

Then I checked the "DOC-calage.xy", it turns out it had negative numbers.
When I erased the sign of the negative numbers, AMC-meptex.pl did not throw errors, it worked OK.

I assummed that some points might be outside de page because of the page size.

From menu "Help", choose the entry "debugging".
