Pdf Creation Font Error

Question

Trying to publish a postsciprt to pdf and I am getting this message. What does it mean and how do I track down the issue? 
 
%%[ Error: limitcheck; OffendingCommand: 1) (Digitized data copyright (C) 1993-2000 Agfa Monotype Corporation. All rights reserved. Arial® is a trademark of The Monotype ]%%

Thanks

Tracked down the issue it was our trademark symbols were wrapped with a font element making them arial unicode, which it seems is an issue for us. Removed the font element and now it postscipts as expected.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Bryon, this is a PostScript error so I doubt PTC can help you - unless you find a defect in the PostScript itself. Does the PostScript display correctly if loaded into Adobe Acrobat or GhostScript GSView?

PostScript errors are described by Adobe here: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-postscript-errors.html

A limitcheck means something in the PostScript is too large. What is strange here is that the font comment is displayed as the "OffendingCommand". The AdvTT indicates that the 3B2/APP/ALD engine is repacking a TrueType font for you. What version of Arbortext software are you using? Does updating to the latest version fix?

Sorry I don't have an easy answer but hopefully some of the ideas above help you.
