Hello -

I have a document that compiles without error on my linux box, but
won't compile on my mac. I get a warning and an error:

================
LaTeX Warning: You have requested document class `seminar',
but the document class provides `fancybox'.

......

! You can't use `the character 2' after \the.
\paperwidth ->2
10mm
l.1705 }

?
================

These problems are similar to those posted in the following thread:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group...38e730b447a175f

Replacing "\def\paperwidth{210mm}" with "\setlength\paperwidth{210mm}
", etc. in sem-a4.sty, as suggested in that thread hasn't fixed the
problem for me.

I'd appreciate any advice anyone might have. The rest of the LaTeX
output is reproduced below.

Thanks very much,
Tim

Updating your LaTeX installation should help.
