That all looks good. And yet, the error messages are telling you those entries don't exist. So, trouble-shooting step 1: Are you sure you're looking at the right maker.ini file -- the one at the location specified in the error messages (the FM9 home directory)? Search your C drive for files named maker.ini. It should find two -- the one in the FM9 home directory and your personal version (somewhere in your user directory tree; don't recall exactly where, and it varies with Windows version). (FM reads them both. Your personal one generally contains only settings specific to you, like window locations, recent file list, etc.) I don't know how it could happen, but perhaps you're looking at a third maker.ini file somewhere that has the correct entries, but FM is looking at a different maker.ini that doesn't. Trouble-shooting step 2 -- you said: > > I'm getting a series of perplexing messages running a build script on > a > > large book, outputting PDF.

What happens if you answer Yes to each of those dialogs? Trouble-shooting step 3: ... umm ... I can't think of a step 3 right now. :-} Richard G.
