When opening a pdf only the first page displays. I can scroll down this
page but once I try to go to the next page emacs freezesand I get the
message:
emacs: Memory allocation failed `' @ fatal/tiff.c/UnregisterTIFFImage/1817.

Can you please provide a reproducible recipe starting from "emacs -Q"?
Also, how much memory can you use on that system? And what version of
the libtiff library did you use to build Emacs?

emacs -Q ~/Documents/a-pdf.pdf
once in emacs press n
a-pdf.pdf must have at least two pages.
I can use 1 gig of memory and my libtiff version is 3.9.4
emacs 23.3.1 opens the same pdf just fine.

I'm sorry, but with this recipe I get just a buffer full of binary
garbage, presumably the contents of the PDF file. What mode is loaded
on your system that displays the PDF file?

for me it opens in DocView mode

That needs Ghostscript which I don't have.
Could someone please reproduce this and provide a full backtrace from
an unoptimized build?

I tried on two different systems (one of which uses libtiff 3.9.4) and
could not reproduce it.
I think "UnregisterTIFFImage" is actually provided by the imagemagick
library. Does the problem go away if you configure --without-imagemagick?
I don't know what tiffs have to do with anything though, since docview
uses png.

OK, but the ImageMagick issue should still be investigated.
What version of ImageMagick is on your system?
Does the crash happen with any multi-page pdf, or just one/some?
For example, does it happen with etc/refcards/refcard.pdf from the Emacs
distribution?
What happens if you just open a png file in emacs -Q?
Can you build Emacs using:
CFLAGS=-O0 -g3 ./configure
make
then run it using:
cd src
gdb ./emacs
run -Q
and when it crashes, post the result of `bt full'?

Nothing can be done without this information, so I am closing this.
If you are interested in pursuing this, please try to reply with those
details and this can be reopened if appopriate.
