Hi Zibby.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There is probably an error in one of the auxiliary files. Probably also an entry in the .log file, about ‘missing begin document’ if it is .aux or other file, read before LaTeX is ready to accept material for typesetting.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Check for this first.</div>
<div>There may be other clues in the .log file, indicating which file was being input at the time the message was created.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When you have an idea of which file to look at, open it in a text editor and pull its window wide open so that there is no wrapping. </div>
<div>You should then be able to see where the spurious entry is coming from.</div>
<div>It is possible that material was meant to be on the previous line, protected by a comment-character, but a line-break has got into the file-stream, thus unprotecting it.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When you find such an error, you will be much better placed to look for the reason why it happened.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope this helps.</div>
<div><br>

Hmmm... I have no idea what that is. Please try to put together a minimum file that shows the problem so we can test it. You say that cleaning out ALL auxiliary files and typesetting from scratch still produces that line in your .aux file? Note: this cannot
be TeXShop since it only typesets the document and the aux file is created by the processing of your file, not by TeXShop.<br>
<br>
Good Luck,<br>
