I make a glossaries with the following snippet of code,

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[toc,nonumberlist]{glossaries} 
\makeglossaries
\newacronym{NGI}{NGI}{Next-Generation Internet} \newcommand{\NGI}{\gls{NGI}}
\newacronym{LEO}{LEO}{Low Earth Orbit} \newcommand{\LEO}{\gls{LEO}}
\newacronym{MEO}{MEO}{Medium Earth Orbit} \newcommand{\MEO}{\gls{MEO}}

\begin{document}

Just for test.

\printglossaries

\end{document}

But the output document only contains Just for test, not glossaries. I checked with glossaries: don't print single occurences and can't see any problem with my code.

Here is a part of compilation info.

$ latex main.tex 
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.5-1.40.14 (TeX Live 2013/Debian)

Output written on main.dvi (1 page, 232 bytes).
Transcript written on main.log.

As pointed by @NicolaTalbot, there is still nothing after running makeglossaries main.

$ makeglossaries main
makeglossaries version 2.12 (2014-01-20)
added glossary type 'main' (glg,gls,glo)
Warning: File 'main.glo' is empty.
Have you used any entries defined in glossary 'main'?
Remember to use package option 'nomain' if you
don't want to use the main glossary.

PS: my platform is Ubuntu + Texmaker.

  • No file main.gls means you either haven't run makeglossaries or something went wrong with with the attempt to generate that file. Did you try makeglossaries main after latex main? If you have run makeglossaries try this answer for debugging help. – Nicola Talbot Jun 15 '16 at 14:27
  • @NicolaTalbot, thx for the quick response. makeglossaries main reminds me File 'main.glo' is empty. I just added to my answer. – SparkAndShine Jun 15 '16 at 14:58

    Sorry I didn't notice earlier, you haven't used any of the entries in the document (there are no commands like \gls or \glsadd). – Nicola Talbot Jun 15 '16 at 15:07
  • @NicolaTalbot, thx again. Would you please give the detailed description as an answer? – SparkAndShine Jun 15 '16 at 15:10
