Mmm, interesting.  I print the file with the printer "CutePDF Writer".  This kind of printing create pdf file and print inside of it.  Look at the result in the attached pdf file.  This is exactly the same problem with the printing on the server.
Thanks

Is the printer showing same error as CutePDF? I suppose limitcheck 32 might mean the postscript interpreter does not support more than 32 paths on the page, seeing there are near 32 graphics paths shown on first page if you count shadows + nodes + links + expand button graphics. Does it print more nodes if you disable shadows?

This troubleshooting page mentions as possible cause there not being enough of printer memory and offers as work-around printing at lower resolution:

According to page below it could also happen if postscript 2 commands are sent to postscript 1 device, do you know what postscript level does your printer support?

Also check this thread for our .NET PDF exporter:

If you know a .NET language, try loading the diagram XML file into our .NET Windows Forms control, exporting with the DisableTextClipping property enabled, and then printing. If that works, we'll try to port it to Java for next release.

Hi, the problem occur only if there is a font (text) inside the pdf file.  I can draw 10,000 path (shapes) without any problem.  As soon as I write any kind of character, the problem begin with a variable qty of path.

We print on a regular base big size pdf file including many shapes (path) and text and the print server doesn't throw any error.

I continue my investigations.
Thanks

We reproduced the limit check error when printing from Adobe Reader to CutePDF and the DisableTextClipping property from .NET exporter did help fixing it. Check if it will work for your printer:

https://mindfusion.eu/_beta/jdiag.4.1.2.zip

Code
Select All
...
exporter.setDisableTextClipping(true);
...
 



I hope that helps,
Stoyan
