Hi Norbert, Thank you for responding so quickly and helpfully. I've appended a diff between your log and mine. There are minor differences in memory usage and yours has "\write18 enabled." and mine does not. I don't know the significance of that. We're also picking up our cont-sys.rme from dfferent places, which seems strange when we're both using Debian packages. I've attached a png showing the bad section symbols. --Mike Bird 1c1 < This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.5-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) (format=cont-en 2007.2.5) 6 FEB 2007 23:41 ---
