The PostScript operator "known", which checks whether a key is defined 
in a dictionary, received a boolean value instead of a dictionary.
This is a run-time exception that terminates the PostScript job.

You have to debug.
Try to save the job to on disk and run the file on other PS
interpreters: Distiller and Ghostscript are the most common.
Ghostscript has better diagnostics and debug modes.

Feel free to contact me if you need some practical help.
