Hello, I followed the instructions from the document "Installing JadeTeX" as distributed by CTAN. I am able to run (PDF)JadeTeX succesfully on rather small file, but fail to do so on large files (>830 pages) The output from pdfjadetex is: This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-13d (Web2C 7.3.1) (atpbook.tex[/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg] JadeTeX 2000/06/20: 2.20 (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/t1ptm.fd) Elements will be labelled Jade begin document sequence at 19 (atpbook.aux) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/cyrillic/ot2wncyr.fd) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/cyrillic/t2acmr.fd) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/ts1cmr.fd) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/context/base/supp-pdf.tex (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/context/base/supp-mis.tex loading : Context Support Macros / Missing ) loading : Context Support Macros / PDF ) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/hyperref/nameref.sty) (atpbook.out) (atpbook.out) (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/t1phv.fd) [1.0.16[/usr/loc al/share/teTeX/share/texmf/dvips/config/pdftex.map]] [2.0.16] (/usr/local/share/teTeX/share/texmf/tex/latex/psnfss/ts1ptm.fd) [3.0.16] <snip> Overfull \hbox (0.75397pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 326722--326723 []|\T1/phv/b/n/17.28 44.17| <use /home/prijken/atp/sgml/cmg.jpg> Overfull \vbox (10.61981pt too high) has occurred while \output is active [832.0.16] !

I have been trying for 6 hours to alter the settings in the texmf.cnf file, build hugelatex, pdfjadetex, and try again... I have tried to increase every parameter in texmf.cnf to rediculous values, but with noi success. All parameters seem to increase but I cannot get the total number of strings any larger???? Does anyone have any idea which parameter in the texmf.cnf file I have to increase in order to raise the 'number of strings'?? And yes, I built all the format files again, and have run mktexlsr... Is there someone who can help me on this one? I'm using jadetex 2.20. Many thanks in advance, regards, pieter -- Pieter Rijken E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CMG Telecommunications and Utilities B.V.
