I think limitcheck errors are related to a lack of memory. Perhaps you
could allocate more memory to the application.

Lots of experience with this. Here's my educated guess:

The font you ARE using is not acceptable to Distiller, and it wants to 
substitute Helvetica (the default sans-serif substitution font). But you 
have Helvetica turned off, or not the version of Helvetica Distiller 
expected to find.

Go back and change your print setup to NOT substitute fonts. That should 
do the job.

Hi Andris,

You could try checking the PDF at 
<http://www.preflight.com/EXTENSIS/Specify.gsp?user=EXTENSISDEMO>.  
Preflight Online is a commercial service from Extensis (the company who 
make Suitcase) but the link that I have provided will take you to a free 
area which will analyze your PDF at no charge.  A prelight plug-in will 
be downloaded to your web browser when you visit this website as all of 
the analysis happens on your local hard drive. The plug-in then sends 
technical data back to the web site which in turn generates a report of 
the problems that it has found with your files as well as how to fix 
them.  I hope that it helps to find the problem in your file.

Regards,

Luke Maslen.
