I'm using the arrayjob package (to have an array data stucture) and I just added the more known array to have a vertically centered table (text+pictures).

I get an error and seems it seems the array package is executing the \newarray command (defined by arrayjob).

Usage (to declare a new array named \Correct):

\usepackage{arrayjob} \usepackage{array} \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \newarray\Correct % This line triggers the error \end{document}

Error:

`! Package array Error: Illegal pream-token (C): 'c' used.

even though I did not find a \newarray command in the array documentation.

Anyone has seen this problem? Any ideas can be done to solve it?

(TeXlive in Debian)

    A minimal example of the code producing the error is needed Commented Jan 31, 2012 at 8:35

A cursory glance at arrayjob.sty shows it defines a macro \array so it would be incompatible with LaTeX in any case. The same directory has an arrayjobx.sty that says

% * 05/03/10 - Version 1.04 % + Change the name of the macro \array to \arrayx % to avoid conflict with macros in the amsmath package. % Change suggested by Michael Sharpe (msharpe at ucsd.edu)

  • Well, I've been using arrayjob with LaTeX for a few years without problems. arrayjobx.sty was not available in my texlive installation but after downloading it and replacing the older package everything works. Commented Jan 31, 2012 at 22:55
