Troubleshooting

If your file does not work with LATEX2e, there are two likely reasons.

- LATEX now has a robust, well-defined designer's interface for selecting fonts, which is very different from the LATEX 2.09 internals.
- Your style file may have used some LATEX 2.09 internal commands which have changed, or which have been removed.

When you are debugging your file, you will probably need more information than is normally displayed by LATEX2e. This is achieved by resetting the counter `errorcontextlines` from its default value of to a much higher value, e.g. 999.
