<P><FONT SIZE=2>Will and Ross,<BR>
<BR>
Thank you both for your help. <BR>
<BR>
Will asked:<BR>
>On the off-chance that this is a fontspec problem, do you have any <BR>
>macros that contain \fontspec or anything like that?<BR>
<BR>
No, I don't use any fontspec commands besides what is in the header that<BR>
I showed, to set the main font. Of course it is possible that one of<BR>
the packages that I am using does something of which I am unaware. (The<BR>
most advanced packages I use are hyperref and xcolor.)<BR>
<BR>
For what it is worth, to me, a seg fault seems an odd thing to do if<BR>
there is some error in the macros. <BR>
<BR>

I don't see anything in the .aux file. Here is what it looks like. <BR>
There is a preamble<BR>
\relax<BR>
\ifx\hyper@anchor\@undefined<BR>
\global \let \oldcontentsline\contentsline<BR>
\gdef \contentsline#1#2#3#4{\oldcontentsline{#1}{#2}{#3}}<BR>
\global \let \oldnewlabel\newlabel<BR>
\gdef \newlabel#1#2{\newlabelxx{#1}#2}<BR>
\gdef \newlabelxx#1#2#3#4#5#6{\oldnewlabel{#1}{{#2}{#3}}}<BR>
\AtEndDocument{\let \contentsline\oldcontentsline<BR>
\let \newlabel\oldnewlabel}<BR>
\else<BR>
\global \let \hyper@last\relax<BR>
\fi<BR>
<BR>
\providecommand*\HyPL@Entry[1]{}<BR>
\HyPL@Entry{0 << /S /D >> }<BR>
\HyPL@Entry{1 << /S /D >> }<BR>
Then there are perhaps 150 sections like this:<BR>
\@writefile{toc}{\contentsline {chapter}{James Hefferon}{455}{chapter*.277}}<BR>
\@writefile{lof}{\addvspace {10\p@ }}<BR>
\@writefile{lot}{\addvspace {10\p@ }}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxiv {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
\@writefile{toc}{\contentsline {section}{MA 208 A}{456}{section*.278}}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxv {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxvi {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxvii {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
\@writefile{toc}{\contentsline {section}{MA 213 A}{458}{section*.279}}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxviii {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
\gdef \LT@dlxxxix {\LT@entry<BR>
{5}{469.75499pt}}<BR>
Obviously I am not seeing something, but it looks innocent to my eye.<BR>
<BR>
I happen not to use table captions. This is output from a database<BR>
(it is a list of class evaluations for a system I am writing for my<BR>
school to use, so I used longtable to allow for lists of comments<BR>
that span multiple pages). A person could fairly characterise it as<BR>
big, but unsophisticated.<BR>
<BR>
In case it is useful, I have had success with a number of other fonts<BR>
that I grabbed off the net (Gentium and Fontin are two) so something<BR>
about Charis at least seems to be the trigger.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks again,<BR>
Jim</FONT>
