I'm a newcomer to TeX trying to run skakdoc.tex from https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/chess/skak/doc?lang=en.

I cannot get it to compile correctly using pdflatex. It gives

! undefined control sequence <recently read> \c@lor@to@ps

It seems to compile alright with xelatex, though no squares are highlighted. (Expecting highlighted squares based on the ps file in the link and the error)

My setup: proTeXt, Basic MikTeX installed. Also installed pstricks and other possible related packages. Using notepad++ to run pdflatex.

  • The error persisted with the -shell-escape options, so it doesn't appear to be the same problem. – sparky Nov 18 '15 at 09:12

Found the answer from another thread:

How can I get skak to highlight squares

Due to the ps option, we have to do

latex skakdoc.tex
dvips skakdoc.dvi
ps2pdf skakdoc.ps
