Notepad++ and MiKTeX — CMD not recognizing commands/exes
Currently, I can't get a batch file/run command combo to compile my .tex files into PDFs -- it throws an error at multiple lines, which I will mark in the code with an '*' before them. The only solution I found for this was to change the path file to add the MiKTeX directory -- which I have done, and the problem persists. I haven't been able to find any other fixes.
First, the run command:
"C:UsersMatthewDesktoplatex.bat" "$(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" "$(NAME_PART)"
Then, the .bat itself
%~d1
cd %1
*call:cleanup
*pdflatex %2
*bibtex %2
*pdflatex %2
*pdflatex %2
*call:cleanup
START "" "C:Program FilesSumatraPDFSumatraPDF.exe" %2 -reuse-instance
del *.dvi
del *.aux
del *.bbl
del *.blg
del *.brf
del *.out
goto:eof
All of the code was lifted from this webpage.
The only functioning parts as best I can tell are the run command itself, the launching of the PDF program (and it attempting to open a file that doesn't exist, since MiKTeX isn't working), and the deletion of the log files at the very end. PDFLatex on its own can be called through the command prompt, but for some reason trying to put it in the batch file doesn't work.
