I use the lines: \typefile {samp.tex}{samp.tex} \page[yes] \stoptext % For debugging purposes The file samp.tex contains ascii tex from the sample files knuth, zapf and tufte, concluded by the single tag \bye. The document compiles fine and displays fine in xpdf or kpdf (Linux). But Acrobat Reader 7.0 (Linux) comes up with the message "there was a problem with this document" and displays two blank pages instead. It will however display the rest of the document if the \stoptext statement above is removed. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost.

I cannot reproduce that problem. I guess the exact contents of samp.tex is a key ingredient so if it is not too big ... (and check your log for font mapping issues) Success, Taco

This was truly a wierd one. Way back in my subfile "macros.tex" I had an erroneous statement: \setuptyping [option=tex] This compiled clean and the resulting pdf could be read in xpdf. But Acrobat Reader didn't like it. I have no memory of when or how I came up with that option. To find the problem first I commented out \input macros.tex which identified where the problem was. Then I commented out the whole macros.tex file (128 lines), and uncommented it block by block until I found the culprit.
