Projects |
TeXnicCenter manages your documents always as projects. Even if there is only one file (i.e. a letter), you have to create a project for this document. It is wise to create a directory for each project. Please refer to the section Creating Project for more information.
A project contains the following informations:
Always put the files of one project in the project's directory. One of
these files has to be the project's main file. The main file is the file, that
is passed to the LaTeX compiler. If a document is split into several
LaTeX files, they should be included into the project's main file with the
commands \input
or \include
.
TeXnicCenter needs to know the main file of a project. Specify the main file, when creating the project, or change it later, by choosing the menu item 'Properties...' from the menu'Project' and changing the path 'Main file'.
