My problem is resolved, but not solved. I'm more confused than ever, but ready to move on. I tried PDFing just Ch. 4, the chapter file containing pp. 54-56. It worked fine. I tried the book again. FM locked up and Distiller crapped out at p. 54 again (per the log). But this time I was watching more closely. The FM progress dialog seemed to indicate that FM was processing Ch. 3, the file _before_ the one containing pp. 54-56, when it locked up. And sure enough, when I tried PDFing just Ch. 3, FM crashed again. So I MIF-washed Ch. 3, and now my problem is gone. That chapter and the book PDFed without error. The "not solved" is my inability to comprehend how it's possible for Distiller to get half-way through Ch. 4 when FM seemed to crash while processing Ch. 3. Oh, well -- like I said, ready to move on.
