subject index gives error, name index is alright
Hello List,
after having spent several hours to find out an error I would like to ask
for your help.
I am translating a book (of about 200 pages) which I have written in German
into English.
The pdf output of the German one is ok.
The output of the English version gives me an error (see ###1###)
and view complete log gives me (see ###2###)
If I comment out the subject index at the end of my document it works
alright.
The name index works alright.
Has anybody run into such an error and could give me a hint what is going
wrong?
I am using koma script book style and A5 size, if this is of concern.
Is there a way (eg in the tex file) to take off parts of the indexed entries,
in order to localize the entry causing the error?
Wolfgang

I've deleted a group-closing symbol because it seems to be
spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the
deleted material, e.g., by typing `I$}'.
