[tex4ht] [bug #618] Incomplete XML Document, domfilter error, truncated build on large file.

[Karl Berry]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #618 (project tex4ht):

For the record: 1) dvitype reads the entire dvi file page by page, merely
storing away the
total_pages value from the postamble so it can report any discrepancy,
not using it to actually parse the dvi file.

In theory it might be possible to change the tex4ht and t4ht programs to
do the same, but this is not something I'm going to spend time on. Aside
from the work of rearranging the basic logic of the programs, I think
it's likely that some other capacity problem will arise.

2) here is the tiny plain TeX file I wrote to
generate a document with 65600 DVI pages:

\count255=0
\loop\ifnum\count255 < 65600
  \advance\count255 by 1
    x\vfil\eject
\repeat
\end
