If so, does it open in Illustrator at all? If you can open it, try making a new file in Illustrator and https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5965706?tstart=0 then copy/paste the contents of the original file into the new one. You may also want to try saving the original as an EPS file. The original was probably saved as a PDF with Illustrator editing enabled and something has gone wrong with the PDF's internal PostScript code; the Illustrator version within the file may still be OK.

the Basics section to determine exactly what PostScript error and offending command you got hit with. Then do one of the following (not necessarily in that order but this seems to be the most logical approach to me): 1. Try printing one more https://www.prepressure.com/postscript/troubleshooting/tips time Take a deep breath, look through the window during a couple of seconds, check all the parameters in the Print windows and print again. Sometimes a simple mistake like setting the orientation wrong causes errors. Have a colleague print the job. He or she may instantly see what you did wrong. Everybody makes a stupid mistake once in a while (I once spent 2 hours troubleshooting a ‘broken' Mac, only to find out offending command the keyboard wasn't plugged in properly). This is definitely the first thing to try if no other documents or applications cause similar problems. 2. Cut the print job into smaller pieces Don't print large jobs with many pages or big images in one go. Print a couple of pages at the time or even one single page at the time. This makes it easier for both your computer and the RIP to process the file. error undefined offending Always try this approach if you have an older printer or RIP. 3. Search for solutions for your specific error Look up both the error and offending command in my database of PS errors and offending commands. This may give you a clue as to what to do next. Check out other sites as well by searching the web for pages about the specific PostScript error or offending command. Another alternative is to post your question on the b4print prepress forum. 4. Switch to another computer, app, driver,… Print the job from another computer, from another version or copy of the application used to create the file and try switching drivers. Always print the file to another PostScript device as well. If the same error occurs, you are at least sure the error is somehow related to your document or the way it is created or printed. The reverse is not true: if a document prints on one device but not on another, this does not mean that that device is unreliable or faulty. The inconsistency may be caused by differences in drivers, memory and hard disk capacity, installed fonts,workflow or PostScript revisions. PostScript aims to be device independent but it obviously isn't. I always print troublesome files to file and then use Acrobat Distiller to check whether it generates the same
