Wie kann ich thumbpdf ausführen?

Die Dateinamen für ghostscript, die thumbpdf erwartet, hängen davon ab, was perl als Architektur meldet. Bei mswin32c versucht es beispielsweise gswin32c zu starten, bei mswin64c entsprechend gswin64c. Im Zweifelsfall erwartet es, dass ghostscript als gs verfügbar ist. Was es erwartet, erfährt man beispielsweise mit

Syntax:   thumbpdf [options] <jobname[.pdf|.ps]>
Function: Support of thumbnails for pdfTeX or dvips/ps2pdf (pdfmark).
          Thumbnails are generated by Ghostscript and the result is
          written to data files for package `thumbpdf.sty':
          `<jobname>.tpt' (pdfTeX), `<jobname>.tpm' (pdfmark)

Hier wird also erwartet, dass ghostscript unter dem Namen gs verfügbar ist.

ausprobieren. Falls C:\texlive\2013\tlpkg\tlgs\bin nicht im Suchpfad ist, kannst Du auch den gesamten Pfad angeben.

Einen weiteren Tipp für Probleme beim Aufruf von ghostscript liefert übrigens die Anleitung zu thumbpdf, die man mit texdoc thumbpdf auf der Kommandozeile erhält:

• If Ghostscript cannot be started by perl because of serious problems (segmentation faults, ...), option printgscmd can be used: Thumbpdf prints the command line arguments for the ghostscript call in the file thumbpdf.gs and finishes. Then Ghostscript can manually be invoked to create the png files, e.g.:

  1
  gs386/gswin32c @thumbpdf.gs (DOS/Win3.1)
   
   
  הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה

  You need a Ghostscript executable that contains the png devices. For example version 5.50 can be run under Win3.1/Win32s by making a program icon with the correct working directory and the command PATH/gswin32(c) @thumbpdf.gs, e.g:

  1
  c:\gstools\gs5.50\gswin32 -Ic:\gstools\gs5.50 @thumbpdf.gs

  In the next call of thumbpdf the Ghostscript step is omitted by option nomakepng.

Statt gswin32c hättest Du in dem Beispiel gswin32 bzw. C:\texlive\2013\tlpkg\tlgs\bin\gswin32.exe zu verwenden.

Ob das Mini-Ghostscript für thumbpdf dann ausreicht, kann ich Dir allerdings nicht sagen. Garantiert ist das nicht. Ebenso ist nicht garantiert, dass das Mini-Perl von TeX Live für Windows für die Ausführung von thumbpdf genügt. Generell würde ich daher empfehlen, ein richtiges Perl und ein richtiges Ghostscript zu installieren. Letzteres am besten gleich mit einem PostScript-Viewer wie GSView.
