[AUCTeX] auctex 11.87.2 no bounding box error

[Jiangzhi Chen]

Hi everyone,

I am using auctex with emacs 24.3. After I upgraded auctex to 11.87.2, I often got the error when I preview the tex file:

Ghostscript filter: No bounding box

After some hunting, I found the root of error to be the length of my tex file name. For example, I have a sample tex file called sample.tex:

\title{This is the title}
\author{Author One \\ Author Two}
\date{29 October 2013}

\begin{document}
\maketitle

This is the content of this document.

This is the 2nd paragraph.
Here is an inline formula:
$   V = \frac{4 \pi r^3}{3}  $.
And appearing immediately below
is a displayed formula:
$$  V = \frac{4 \pi r^3}{3}  $$
\end{document}

This file can be previewed correctly. However, if I rename the file to samplesamplesample.tex, previewing the file leads to "no bounding box" error.

I hope this can be fixed very soon.

cheers,

Jiangzhi
