Error: Not enough room in an internal buffer
Hello Community!
I'm trying to create a poster for an Exhibition. Everything worked just fine, until I tried to compile and create the .PDF file. I get the error message "pdflatex.exe: Not enough room in an internal buffer.". I did some research and it looks like the error occurs if the path is too long. I think this is not the case... Would be great if someont could help me out with this one.
If you need something else (error files, etc.) please just let me know.
Thank you all!

Welcome to the forum!
Please provide your code that results in that error. I guess there may be a special character in the file name.

Welcome,
place the word Wombat directly behind
Compile again. Does it work now? If not, the problem is in your preamble and we need to see it. If it compiles just fine, move the
place the word Wombat directly behind
\begin{document}
and add \end{document}
. Compile again. Does it work now? If not, the problem is in your preamble and we need to see it. If it compiles just fine, move the
\end{document}
down, step by step with compile runs inbetween. At some point, it will stop working and you have found the block that causes the problem. Copy past that block into a new document, add your preamble at the begining, do another compile run. Error persists? Show us that file and the log file.The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Hello and Thank you for the warm welcome!
I did what you said, but it doesn't compile with the "Wombat" test either
So here is my code (lots of ipsum lorem, as I'm not done yet):

Error: Not enough room in an internal buffer
There's a lot of errors, possibly because you posted a big code but not all details.
minimal working example that actually produces this error?
Stefan
- included images not found (not posted, could be attached)
- theme
UwbHc
is unknown (you may have it, but not we, and it's not attached) - error in the bibliography (Use of
\@item
doesn't match its definition) -
\justifying
is undefined (it exists in the beamer class) -
adjustwidth
is undefined (it exists in thechangepage
package) - a pdf error (pdfTeX error (ext5): cannot open file for embedding.
l.32 ...j stream attr{/N 3} file{sRGB-Profile.icc})

Hi Stefan!
I found the error. The problem was, that I downloaded the template via GitHub and that the folder it was in was named very strange and was a subfolder of the same folder with the same name. I renamed the folders and it worked just fine!
Thank you all for your help and patience with a novice user
Have a nice evening,
Phil

Hi Phil,
nice to hear that you found the cause and it works now! I mark the topic as solved.
By the way, where on github did you find this template?
