Buffer size exceeded

Post by AndreR »

Hi,
i am writing a paper (reftex4). My pictures are made as .eps. I can generate a pdf directly with pdflatex and epstopdf. But i can´t get a .dvi or .ps. Looks like there is something with the pictures. When i start latex a window pops up with the message:

latex.exe has detected an error and has to be stopped.

The log-errormessage is :

<Bilder\tmr(ta)neu>
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.
Please contact the application´s support team for more information.

Here is my header:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\documentclass[twocolumn,showpacs,preprintnumbers,amsmath,amssymb,prb]{revtex4}
\usepackage {sistyle}
\usepackage{graphicx}
%\usepackage{dcolumn}
\usepackage{bm}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\usepackage{upgreek}
%\usepackage{epstopdf}
%\epstopdfsetup{update}

%\usepackage{hyperref}
%\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{2}

\makeatletter
\newcommand{\trenn}{\penalty\@M\hskip 0pt plus .1em\penalty\@M/\hskip 0pt
plus .1em\relax}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\end{document}

There is nothing in your statement that makes me comprehend the problem. I can only assume that your OS is Windows Vista and there could be some compatibility problems. For further help please provide a minimal working example (MWE) that reproduces the undesired behaviour. Please, follow the instructions on the linked page very carefully when creating this MWE.


Best regards and welcome to the board
