anybody any thoughts as to the nature of the PostScript printing problem that I

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>I'm currently
generating PDFs using XEP 3.8 (Java). XEP has proved to be a great tool
for quickly creating PDFs, using the Tutorial and UserGuide documentation for
reference.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=657315310-28102004></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>However, I am
aware that I know very little about any performance tuning considerations, and
also about Postscript printing issues.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=657315310-28102004></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>The problem is
that various subscribers to our service (delivery of products owned under the
service is provided in a variety of formats including PDF) have reported
problems with using Postscript printers to print delivered PDF
content.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=657315310-28102004></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>For example,
one error raised by a subscriber stated that our product "</SPAN><SPAN
class=657315310-28102004>crashes my HP LaserJet 4050N Postscript Printer (page
says ERROR: typecheck, OFFENDING COMMAND: filter) when printing from Acrobat
Professional 6.02." What adds to my confusion is that the PDF
product has previously been provided to subscribers via Acrobat Distiller
generated content, and the subscribers have stated that no problems occurred
previously with printing the Distiller generated
PDFs.</SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=657315310-28102004></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>This problem may
be related to the fact that the XEP generated PDF has a size of 225KB but when
I choose to print to a Postscript file (choosing "Print to File" on the File
-> Print menu), the size rises to 11MB. PDFs of the same product type
generated via Distiller were of a size 275KB but only rose to 330KB when I
chose "Print to File". Also, the printing of new XEP generated product
(where printing works on my PC, as opposed to the client that has reported the
problem) is noticeable slower as a result.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=657315310-28102004>I'd be grateful
for any advice on what I am doing incorrectly.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
