Hi,


Postcript failures are very difficult to get by. Sometimes it is the printer driver you use. It may be a broken link, a bad font, whatever.

First of all I would go to the links and see if there are any broken links. If so restore the links.

To get to the best result I would say try writing to .ps different parts of the document. Print the first page to .ps, than the second and so on. I know it is a trial and error version but this is the best way I can help.

If your problem starts At the first pageand continues on every page you try to print to .ps Then I presume it will be a font or a paragraph style problem.

let us know if it helped

Sometimes things are complicated by large files. I know that I've had problems with a 60 page document and I resolved the problem only by breaking the document into two smaller files.
