line. This error is more common on old PostScript level 1 RIPs than on Level 2 or PostScript 3 devices. Sometimes it is not the document that is too complex, but the RIP or printer has certain limitations. General solutions Reduce the complexity of the file: In a lot of cases, error limitcheck offending command gsave redesigning the document to make it less complex can get around "limitcheck" errors.

an EPS or placing a PDF file on a page) also adds to the complexity of a document and can lead to limitcheck errors (especially with the offending commands ‘save' and ‘restore').

Johan sent me an e-mail: He got a couple of limitcheck errors in PostScript 3 RIPs because of a very big ‘history' entry in Photoshop EPS metadata. The problem is solved by deleting the metadata, but finding the offending image can be tricky in a big project. Photoshop itself has no problem with such EPS files and they can be placed in QuarkXPress documents without a problem. Using TIFF or JPEG or making it a standard procedure to remove history info from metadata (or all meta data) are valid workarounds. Give your workflow, printer or RIP more room to work Lowering the resolution of your imagesetter or printer makes it easier for the RIP to calculate the job. This may seem odd but sometimes selecting a higher screen ruling is not such a bad idea as well. Reboot the RIP (or printer) to clear its memory. Some laser printers allow you to add more memory. That often does the trick and with the current RAM prices, it doesn't even cost that much. If you are still using an old PostScript level 1 RIP, perform a font cache delete if you have the tools for this. Avoid extra layers of software Get rid of all extra software that adds to the complexity of the job: do not use OPI, do not print using a printer queue, disable any xten
