FM 11 crashing consistently on Save Ditamap As > PDF

[Craig Ede]

What's weird is I can do these actions without crashing in another document (ditamap). In this troublesome document, even trying to save a small ditamap (a submap that is included in the larger doc) produces the crash. All docs authored in FM. It's almost as if there is something about the directory that is causing FM to crash. I can save files, so it's not a file save restriction.
 
It would be nice if FM gave some meaningful error message.

    It sounds like there's something in
      your topics (or map) that FM doesn't like. I'd start by pruning
      the set of files down to locate the problem.

      

      Have these files been authored in FM or another XML editor? It's
      possible that you're using DITA elements or features in a way that
      FM doesn't support.

      

      Are you applying a ditaval file? Try the build without the
      filtering to see if that works.

      

      You might want to post your question to the framemaker-dita Yahoo
      group as that'll get to an audience who may have more experience
      with DITA and FM.

      

      Cheers,
