Well, thanks to all those who replied to my article. The answer was pretty obvious wasn't it. The other problem mentioned about overfull main memory pool is more troublesome though, and short of getting a bigger TeX (We already have what appears to be the biggest that can be installed here) no other possible solutions were forwarded. The problem remember was that I am using PiCTeX to draw chemical structures which were placed in a scheme that could contain possibly 6-8 heterocyclic molecules with arrows etc. By itself it works fine but if TeX tries to put two such schemes on the one page main memory overflows. Positioning text by hand to try and get TeX to place the second scheme on the next page does fix the problem, and I suupose in the pentultimate draft that may be the easiest solution. WE are just about to install TeX3.0, and I think I saw somewhere that this version of teX had a more realistic approach to setting memory sizes?? Is This so?? Can TeX3.0 be more easily configured to give a BiG-TeX?? Thanks again to all that replied. it is really good to know that there is that sort of backup available. tony scott.
