What should I check first if I cannot run TexPoint?

• I have all sorts of problems apparently due to the fact that TexPoint fails to find or use the external commands latex, dvips, pstoedit or ghostscript. You should go to TexPoint/Configure/Information and look through that file to see what can be wrong. • When I try to create EMF displays I get an error and the machine becomes very slow. This has been observed with versions of Ghostscript starting with 8.56. It was due to a bug in the pstoedit application that TexPoint uses, and it was fixed in version 3.1.2 of TexPoint. • When I use the EMF bitmap format I have lots of files with names like txp_fig342343.emf left in the presentation directory. Some versions of PowerPoint (e.g., PowerPoint 2000) forget to close EMF files that it loads. This prevents TexPoint from deleting the EMF files and requires it to create new EMF files with new names. The new names are formed using the value you have in the Debugging pane (default is txp_fig) along with a random numeric suffix. It is Ok to delet
