Thankyou  Martin B 

Editing texmf.cnf seems to have solved my problem (only limited testing so far 
– but thought I should acknowledge your work).

And Martin Luethi, you were on to it, but I forgot Therion users had control of 
memory availability, and in any case, I would not have known quite which 
parameters to change.

Very happy

Bruce

Hi,

 

after testing Bruce's dataset, it seems TeX really runs out of memory in this 
case. 

 

You can increase it in the file texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf

 

Set extra_mem_top = 4000000  % originally 2000000 in the embedded TeX 
distribution in Therion for Windows

 

I also updated this in the Windows installer:
