PostScript. Nesting files (e.g. placing an EPS in 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'). If you have a printer with a limited amount of memory you could try to reduce the number of fonts used in the document. Use the option ‘split long paths' in drawing applications to split up complex path in easier to error limitcheck offending command addglyph stack dictionary process chunks. If you are printing from Illustrator: if the document contains gradients, select Compatible Gradient Printing (Illustrator 7.x or earlier) or Compatible Gradient and Gradient Mesh Printing (Illustrator 8.0) in the Document Setup dialog box. 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

But when I export the same photo, then I could print it with any other application. It seems to be a problem with iPhoto but I can't find any solution or update.

I think it might have something to do with the drivers I am using for the printer. I am pretty sure that I used to print fine, but updated the drivers recently. The issue seemed to have started after that. I was trying to resolve other minor printing issues that would occasionally creep up. Now, my tiger machines cannot print out of iPhoto (I get nothing at all) and my Leopard machines get this error when they try to print. Other programs seem unaffected (can print fine.)

this post in threaded view ♦ ♦ | Report Content as Inappropriate ♦ ♦ ERROR: limitcheck OFFENDING COMMAND: gsave Hello, I saw there was a similar discussion, but the way of sending info to iText was different (we use PdfContentByte.createGraphics(...)). Anyway, the PDF is created but it gives an error when it is printed: ERROR: limitcheck OFFENDING COMMAND: gsave STACK: /RelativeColorimetric These pdf's are generated by iText 2.0.2 (Iowagie.com). The problem seems not to exist when using an older version of iText to create them (PDFs generated by itext-paulo - build 130). The code is something like this: (...) writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, os); document.open(); cb = writer.getDirectContent(); for (int i = 0; i < numPages; i++) { (...) cb.saveState(); Graphics2D g2d = cb.createGraphics(...); printable.print(g2d, pf, i); g2d.dispose(); cb.restoreState(); document.newPage(); } Why does this happen? Can I change something in the way iText graphics is used in order to dodge this error? Thanks, Andrei Costescu Andrei Costescu Reply | Threaded Open this post in threaded view ♦ ♦ | Report Content as Inappropriate ♦ ♦ Re: ERROR: limitcheck OFFENDING COMMAND: gsave I can provide a PDF that works and a PDF that gives the error - if needed. I am not sure if I can control how the PDF is constructed when using the graphics to paint it's content. From the error I think it has something to do with xobject levels, but can I control that? Is it because of the way PdfContentByte.saveState & restoreState is used in the code? Andrei Costescu wrote (...) ERROR: limitcheck OFFENDING COMMAND: gsave STACK: /RelativeColorimetric (...) The code
