   • In your texmaker, goto: User -> User Commands -> Edit User Commands

   

   • Enter: Menu Item makeglossaries and Command makeglossaries % as shown below

   

   • After clicking Ok, this should bring in a new command under Run menu

   

2. Run this custom command

   • After running pdflatex
     • This could be done either by running Quick Build or PDFLatex
   • Now switch to makeglossaries and it once.
     • If you get an error message as shown below, then, you can download perl from strawberryperl.com (for windows user). Install it and then reopen your Code editor again to ensure that the installation is recoganized by the editor. Redo Step 1, for successfull Glossaries compilation.

   

   • Re-run pdflatex
