<title>Compile TeX with SyncTeX</title>
<p>
Adding the line <em>\synctex=1</em> in the preamble of your TeX file will trigger synchronization with SyncTeX.
</p>
<code>
\documentclass{article}
\synctex=1
\usepackage{fullpage}
\begin{document}
...
\end{document}
</code>
<p>
  Alternatively, you can run the pdflatex command with the <em>-synctex=1</em> option:
</p>
<screen>pdflatex -synctex=1 yourFile.tex</screen>
