    a)  A field in a record can have 2000 characters at most

     

    b)  A maximum of 5000 fields from one record are indexed (here also virtual fields which are expanded into the record are considered)

     

    c)  For each document a maximum of 20000 words (from Aleph 22 on, before only 4950 words) are allowed for the word index
