Hi,

I am experiencing issues with emacs (25.3.1) and latex files.

If I set my font to
(set-default-font "6x13")

any file .tex that contains a math subscript (e.g.: $b_d$) will crash
emacs. A possible workaround that I found is to use
(setq font-latex-fontify-script nil)

but it used to work in earlier versions of emacs.
other fonts are working fine.

thank you

bruno

Can you try RC1 of Emacs 26.1?  It's available from alpha.gnu.org.

If Emacs 26.1 crashes as well, please show the C level backtrace from
the crash: run Emacs under GDB and when it crashes, type this command
at GDB prompt:

  (gdb) thread apply all bt

Also, does it happen if you evaluate the above in "emacs -Q" and then
visit a TeX file with subscripts?

I just tried with Emacs 26.1 and this bug is no longer present.

thanks

Great, thanks.  I'm therefore closing this bug.
