Hello Hans,

> That's a known bug on tex live. Indeed you have to edit texmf.cnf.

Which line(s) specifically?

I am also struggling to find out which texmf.cnf to change. I have one in my
own directory,

\mytex\web2c

but also one in

\local\tex\texmf\web2c

and then one in:

c:/Local/TeX/texmf-var/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg

...

The log file says:

systems        : beware: some patches loaded from cont-new.tex!
! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [number of strings=100].

           retainstrategyvariable#1% key
If you really absolutely need more capacity,
you can ask a wizard to enlarge me.
