Postscript Printing Problems with PDFLaTeX

Post by ddenton »

I am having problems have large reports printed with lots of included graphics that were generated with PDFLaTeX using MiKTeX 2.9. My printer from the local copy centre reports that he gets a postscript error with some of my included graphics pages (certain large jpegs, not all) refusing to print.

The Postscript error is something like this:
I/O error. Offending command. Image, Stack. Dictionary. Mark. Save level.

He is printing with Acrobat 8.1 pro.

Has anyone experienced similar problems? Should I suggest printing from an older version of Acrobat (like v. 6)? Could it relate to the PDF version and, if so, would some command be available to change the PDF version in PDFTeX?

We have the distinct impression that the problem is worse since he up-graded his Xerox printing equipment. But it also could relate to the newer version of Acrobat.

Any help would be appreciated.

Printing with Accrobat 6 solves our problem.
