Error publishing code.

I'm trying to publish my MATLAB code, but when I do, the publish button doesn't respond. When I go into the more publishing options, a figure window pops up (note: my code never at any point asks for a figure window) and it says publishing, but nothing happens. Any ideas?

A figure popping up is normal: this happens because of how the publisher works, not because of your code.

Do you get any HTML/pdf/... files? Does the operation finish?

I'm trying to get a PDF but nothing shows up.

[Stephen23]

Does the operation finish? Can you resume executing other code?

[Matthew Olivo]

No

[Stephen23]

How long does this code normally take to execute? Does it contain any UI's or dialog boxes?

[Matthew Olivo]

All the code has is a while loop. However, the re are about +1000 lines of comments and the while loop prints 4 items each time.

It sounds like you are printing quite a lot of text. This will be slow.
