> I added "stack_size = 10000" to /usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf.cnf. The location of texmf.cnf seems strange. Please edit the texmf.cnf found by kpsewhich texmf.cnf Furthermore you said "added". You have to "change" the existing value. The first one may be effective if the same variable appeares multiple times. Best, Akira
