up the print job in smaller entities can also do the trick. Print only one page or even one color at the time. Send your page without including the images to see whether error limitcheck offending command mac images are causing the problem. Ungrouping objects can be very effective. Often groups and especially groups in groups or rotated groups of objects really make it tough to render 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 postscript errors ‘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 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.

language. If your PostScript interpreter appears to process data but then stops, a PostScript error could have occurred.A PostScript error message includes a PostScript error type, which defines the type of error it is. https://www.prepressure.com/postscript/troubleshooting/errors/limitcheck It also includes an offending command, which usually indicates the specific part of the PostScript code that the interpreter couldn't read. The offending command usually indicates the command that caused the problem. Some PostScript errors point you right to the cause of the problem, and some get you looking in the right direction.Example of a PostScript error:%%[Error: ; OffendingCommand: ]%%For example, the PostScript error %%[Error: dictfull; OffendingCommand: def ]%% https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-postscript-errors.html contains the PostScript error type "dictfull" and the offending command "def." The error type indicates that the dictionary contains the maximum number of entries. The offending command is the last command the PostScript interpreter tried to process, "def," which defines a new word in the dictionary. View or print a PostScript error message If you think a PostScript error has occurred, but it doesn't appear onscreen or in your printout, you can sometimes view or print the error message. Do one or more of the following:Use an error handler utility. For example, Adobe PageMaker has the Include PostScript Error Handler option in the Print Options dialog box.In Windows, configure the printer to print the error message:Note: In Windows NT, you cannot configure a printer to print an error message. Choose one of the following: Start > Settings > Printers (Windows 2000)Start > Printers And Faxes (Windows XP)Start > Control Panel > Printers (Windows Vista, Windows 7) Right-click the printer you are using, and then choose Printer Properties. Select the General tab, select Printing Preferences, and then click Advanced. Expand Document Options, and then expand PostScript Options. Set Send PostScript Error Handler to Yes.

This is intended for people who have to try and offending command deal with PostScript errors. You don't need to know anything about PostScript, except that it is a language that gets sent to a printer. By 'errors' I mean specific errors detected by a PostScript printer, that make it stop printing. This won't help you if the results are complete, but not what you expect. Good information on errors is hard to come error limitcheck offending by. The information here may help. It is long and detailed, and best used as a reference. Still, be prepared for a long struggle. Sometimes a file simply cannot be printed on a particular printer, particularly if it is old or has limited memory. (The amount of memory supplied by default with many printers is not adequate for complex graphics or using many fonts). Some people will be dealing with PostScript files sent to them, that they must try to print; others will be generating the PostScript themselves. Not all of the advice in this document can be followed by both groups. Although I refer to 'printers' throughout, you might be using a printer, a printing or previewing package on a PC or workstation, or a high-end typesetter. This file is definitely not intended to help people writing their own PostScript. The discussion is confined to errors likely to be found when a program writes the PostScript on your behalf. If writing PostScript you will need a good manual, and lots of patience! A particularly unpleasant source of problems is bugs, either in the pr
