How do I use latexmk with MuPDF as the PDF previewer?
Solution 1:
You have to specify $pdf_update_method = 2 in the configuration file, which tells latexmk to send a SIGHUP signal to the process when a change is detected:
$pdf_update_method = 2;
$pdf_previewer = 'mupdf';
Solution 2:
- Configure
latexmkfor your user in the file~/.config/latexmk/latexmkrc(per the XDG specification) containing$pdf_previewer = "mupdf". - Specify the configuration's path:
latexmk -pdf -pvc -r ~/.config/latexmk/latexmkrc doc.tex
The default location for a user's configuration latexmk is either ~/.latexmkrc or ~/latexmkrc.
