Need help with preamble pathing
In my main.tex I am requesting my preamble to be loaded through the command usepackage{preamble}, which is in the same folder as my main.tex. My subfiles are located one folder below, e.g. MAIN/introduction/introduction.tex.
I would like to compile my subfiles as individual documents as well, but I get the error preamble.sty not found, which I presume is because I do not have a preamble.tex file located in my subfile folders, only in the main folder.
Is there a possible way around this? For example, would I be able to specify two paths for my preamble, e.g. usepackage{preamble} when I am compiling my main document and usepackage{../preamble} when I am compiling my subfile?
Thanks for the help.

Welcome to TeX.SE. The commandusepackage{preable}tells LaTeX to install a package (typically with extension.sty) named preamble... and so far as I know there is no such package by that name. If you want to includepreamble.tex, just useinput{preamble.tex}instead-- if it is in the main folder with yourmain.tex, I think it should connect properly.

You mentioned you havepreamble.tex. Then you have to useinput{preamble.tex}.
