Offending Command Nostringval
3 down vote favorite I'm receiving a mysterious error when printing a .PDF. The exact message it prints out (wrong linebreaks) is: ERROR: undefinedresult OFFENDING COMMAND: itransform STACK: 2380.1 3366.1 I've already accepted the error and offending command specifications are too general to be of any help. What I'm wondering about is the STACK details. What is it? Could it give any help whatsoever? pdf printing share|improve this question asked Feb 6 '13 at 11:59 JackWilson error: syntax error offending command: stack 13816 The numbers under STACK are probably the location on the stack and an error code that was thrown when something wrong was caught. –OghmaOsiris Feb 6 '13 at 18:28 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted "STACK" is a programming term used to describe functions currently in use to accomplish a particular task. Postscript, the technology behind PDFs, is a programming language in its own right. But unless you are a programmer who understands Postscript, that will do little to help troubleshoot the error. I would say that something happened when the PDF was being created, some odd transformation that the Postscript driver had a hard time understanding, either because the complexity of the effect or there could have been a bug in the driver that created the PDF, that is in turn causing the printer driver to have a hard time. One workaround that sometimes works is, in Acrobat, go to the Advanced settings in the Print window and select "Print as image." Either way, you will have to troubleshoot your original document (if you can) to see if there is something odd you can clean up before making another PDF. share|improve this answer answered Feb 6 '13 at 13:43 Philip Regan 4,25821323 2 You can sometimes narrow the issue down to an individual o

problem. You can also try to copy and paste all elements to a new file. If the document was converted from a previous version of an application, try http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/15733/adobe-pdf-error-when-printing-whats-stack printing again from that version. A strange word as an offending command: Sometimes a RIP generates an ‘undefined' PostScript error, with an offending command ‘bspt' or another randomly chosen kind of technical term like ‘fob' of ‘xtrfx'. Such errors indicate that the RIP tries to execute a command that has not been defined in the PostScript file. https://www.prepressure.com/postscript/troubleshooting/errors/undefined In a lot of cases, PostScript error "undefined" issues are caused by incorrect drivers: PostScript drivers that are corrupted or that are vendor-specific (eg you try printing to a Tectronix printer using an HP driver) PPDs that are too old or too new. PPDs that should be used for another device. Some applications that put themselves in-between your application and the RIP can also cause this kind of a problem: try printing without passing through a spooler or OPI-system. Use another imposition software or try to avoid using your trapping software. Sometimes the name of the offending command indicates which application is causing the problem. I remember a customer who by accident had deleted a number of PostScript files from his Preps folder. Subsequently Preps kept generating ‘undefined' errors because its printfiles lacked the necessary code. We found this rather quick because the offending command started with ‘SS' or so, something that we linked to ScenicSoft, the makers of Preps.

Unfortunately it is clearly creating a postscript output that is incompatible with your lexmark. You can workaround this problem by avoiding acrobat generated postscript. For this you can either - use a PCL driver for your printer instead of a postscript driver (this completely avoid bypass the problem and doesn't reduce quality/speed) OR - from acrobat's print dialog, click the "advanced" tab at the bottom of the print dialog: are you using "Acrobat default" settings or "custom" settings? If you are using custom settings, this might cause the problem: try choosing acrobat default, and if it still doesn't work, try selecting "print as image" (this can reduce quality/speed) Anyway the real cause of the problem is that your printer doesn't like the postscript generated by acrobat. This may be caused by either acrobat generating bad postscript (less probable) or your printer not processing it correctly (more probable). Also keep in mind that acrobat generates postscript ba
