[AUCTeX] viewing output of dvipdfmx

Folks,


I have the following local variables for a .tex file:

%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: japanese-latex
%%% coding: utf-8
%%% TeX-engine: uptex
%%% TeX-PDF-from-DVI: "dvipdfmx"
%%% TeX-master: t
%%% End:

After the first C-c C-c, uptex is called, OK.

After the second C-c C-c, dvipdfmx is called, OK.

After the third C-c C-c, auctex wants to execute `xdvi -unique ...'
(which fails for .dvi files created by uptex) instead of calling the
PDF viewer. A buglet?

How can I fix that?

Change the value of `TeX-PDF-from-DVI' to "Dvipdfmx". Case is
significant here.

Doh. Indeed, this works, thanks! I suggest to add something like

(case is significant; note the uppercase `D' in both strings)

to the auctex documentation.

Thanks for suggestion. I added your words as a note in the document.
