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 https://www.prepressure.com/postscript/troubleshooting/errors/limitcheck is too complex, but the RIP or printer has certain limitations. General solutions Reduce the complexity of the file: In a lot of cases, redesigning the document to make it less complex can get around "limitcheck" errors. Breaking up the print job in smaller entities can also do the trick. Print only one page or even one color at the time. offending command Send your page without including the images to see whether 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 error limitcheck offending 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 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) ar
