Not enough memory to print this document

Hello all,
I am trying to print tax forms, something I have done for years with no problem. I used a popular tax program to create a PDF file, copied this file to my G3/266 running Mac OS 9.1, and opened it using Acrobat Reader 4.0. Several pages show X's in boxes where the characters should be. I assume this is a font problem with Acrobat Reader 4.0, so I opened the file using Acrobat Reader 5.0, and all pages are rendered properly.
Once I tried to print, I remembered why I have been using Acrobat Reader 4.0: I've never been able to print from version 5.0. When printing from version 5.0, it spools to disk for background printing, then gives a warning: "Not enough memory to print this document". I tried printing the first page of Acrobat Reader's help pages - same problem. Here's a list of what I've tried:
  Background printing on & off
  Acrobat Memory: 12,288 KB (Suggested), 24 MB, 128 MB
  Print Monitor: 16,384 KB, 128 MB
Always the same error.
My G3/266 has 768 MB of RAM
The printer is a LaserWriter Select, which is why I use Mac OS 9.1 to print.
Any ideas how to fix the font problem so I can print form Acrobat Reader 4.0 or how to make Acrobat Reader 5.0 print properly?

Hello Robert,
Thanks for the reply.
In Mac OS 9, the minimum and preferred memory allocation limits may be set by the user. By selecting the application's icon and selecting "Get Info", a panel provides these fields. The application always shows a suggested memory size. Acrobat Reader 5.0 has a suggested memory size of 12,288 KB, I tried raising it to 24 MB, then again to 128 MB. My computer has 768 MB of RAM.
I used TurboTax 2012 running under Mac OS 10.6.8 to create the PDF file by selecting the "Print Returns to Mail" button. It pulls up a system print window with the PDF button, from which I select the "Save as PDF..." option. On my Mac OS 10.6.8 system, the only printer listed in this window is the "Photosmart C4700 series [B6D0EB]", but this has always been the case, and is what I have always used to print.
I have opened the PDF file, created as described, using Preview, and used "Save As..." to save a new copy, using the "Black & White" Quartz filter, since this version of TurboTax wants to use colored tax forms. This should give me a PDF that is entirely created by Mac OS 10.6.8. I have also opened that PDF file again, and done a "Save As...", using the "Create Generic PDFX-3 Document" Quartz filter. I get the same errors when I try to print either PDF file.

  • Not enough memory to complete this operation windows 8

    Hi All,
    I have a problem whith a built executable where at random intervals I get a windows dialogue saying "Not enough Memory to complete this operation"
    I have searched through the forums and although there are similar posts I have not been able to get rid of this message by trying several things.  My project is a cRIO which connects and disconnects using the STM messenger service.  The HOST computer is a Producer consumer design pattern, the crio is a producer consumer with the producer being incoming TCP IP messages essentially.  The windows 8 machine shows no signs of running out of memory.  There is plenty available (8GB) and during normal execution the program is only using roughly 200MB and is stable.
    Some of the things I have tried from reading similar threads but have had no luck.
    Put a delay in TCP Send function from the cRIO (1mS).
    Disabled all writing to files for polled data / results.
    Run in windows 7 and XP compatibility mode and as administrator.
    Move whole executable into my Documents after suspecting file permissions.
    Made whole of install directory full access permissions.
    Disabled firewall and uninstalled anti Virus as its not connected to T'internet.
    Monitored cached data and disk writes using perfmon.
    Monitored Threads and seem stable.
    This build was also tested on a windows 7 machine and has been run overnight with no problems.  the executable also runs on my development machine with no problems.  The windows 8 machine has no NI max installed (Just the RT engine), the windows 7 does along with VISA drivers etc.
    When the "Not Enough...." Dialogue appears the exe hangs untill the prompt is removed.  Once the dialogue is removed the TCP Queue then catches up with Queued data so I know that there are no queues increasing in size (It has happily stored all polled data from an overnight run and then dequeues all this information to the front panel no problem)..
    Build PC:
    Windows 7 (64 bit) - LabVIEW 2013 (32 bit) full development.
    Target PC (with error message)
    Windows 8 (64 bit) - LabVIEW 2013 RTE (Installed from an installer built on machine above using recommended settings)
    Other Test Target (With no problems)
    Windows 7 64 bit - LabVIEW 2013 RTE, MAX and VISA Installed.
    Is there any way to debug this some more??  Where might I find this information in the windows event logs / perfmon etc??
    Many Thanks in advance

    Hi craigc,
    Good job with the current troubleshooting status!
    A couple of things though:
    • Have you tried building the application on the same Windows 8 machine? Does it have the same issue then?
    • Did you try increasing the Virtual Memory usage? Even though this should not haveany  influence if you are using a 64bit machine, it might still be worth a try. There's a tutorial how to do it on Windows 7 here and it should not be very different from Windows 8.
    • You have mentioned that you used perfmon. What exactly did you measure and what results did you log? 
    • Do the pop-ups show up in complete random manner or is there a pattern?
    • What about increasing the delay in TCP Send? I assume you have followed the latter suggestion from this forum post?
    Thanks!

  • Not enough memory to save this file

    hi ,
    im doing a artwork with a size of 210" x 72" and 4 layers in total ( the size is actually half of the actual print size which is 420" by 144" ). But whenever i want to export the ai file to psd , the error prompting ' Not enough memory to save this file ' appears. I've changed my primary scratch disks frm Startup to C:\ ( which is ard 100gb ) but the error still exists. Is there anyone who could help me ? Need to send the works for print next week but i need to export this file to photoshop to do extra effects and changes.

    theres around 88gb left on my drive and my ai file is juz 1.84mb.
    the settings for export is as follows :
    Resolution - 72dpi ( as my workfile is being done to a scale of 50% , i used a lower dpi )
    Options - Write layers with max editability
    Anti-alias unchecked

  • ERROR! "There is not enough memory to open this scene."

    I have a file that is proving impossible to reopen.
    Whenever I open it i receive an error message that says
    "There is not enough memory to open this scene. Your document is
    not damaged and may be safely saved. To increase available memory,
    close open documents or quit and use Get Info command in the Finder
    to allocate more memory to Flash."
    I have looked all over the internet for help and although
    this seems to be a pretty popular problem, no one ever has a
    solution. Some people claim it is because of a corrupt file they
    tried to import. I don't have any files in the library of this
    document and it is all completely vector.
    I desperately need this file. Do have any ideas regarding
    what I can do? Thanks a lot.

    You just posted that it seems to be a popular problem. We see
    that complaint a lot, ever since MX2004 came out. Usually
    associated
    with the larger fla files.
    Once the fla is corrupted there isn't a recover tool for it
    (that I have heard of) You can start over or use a decompiler to
    recover the pieces and code from it to use on your new one.
    soThink swf decompiler can usually make a pretty good fla from a
    working swf file (but not always)

  • Building an Executable - Not Enough Memory to complete this operation

    I am trying to build an executable from my project, it is quite a large program.  During the build, within the 'initializing build' phase, I get the error message 'not enough memory to complete this operation'.  I have a decent PC running XP and 4GB ram. LabVIEW is using about 1.2GB of ram when the problem occurs.
    This is an application that I've been working on for some time and I have experienced similiar problems before.  To get round it I have added the /3GB switch to the boot.ini file.  However that is no longer working, it complains of a problem loading a dll which seems to have only started happening since moving to LV2012.
    Does anybody have any experience with solving this problem please? It is a bit of a showstopper for me at the moment.
    Thank you,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,
    Adding the 3GB switch is a solution which should still work on your system. 
    I'm a little confused, is the system still complaining about not having enough memory? Or is it just the dll problem?
    And is the error message occuring during the build, or when trying to run the .exe?
    The dll in question is associated with DAQmx. 
    If it is a runtime problem rather than a build problem, it may be that you haven't included the DAQmx driver on the target machine, in which case the answer lies in this document: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/5406/en
    If I've misunderstood, please clarify the exact issue which is currently occuring, and we can continue to troubleshoot.

  • Not enough memory to complete this remote panel operation (LAN)

    Hi, the problem is, when i try to view or control an application thru a simple LAN, at my work, i recibe the message "Not enough memory to complete this operation"... but both PCs are very closely... So,
    are there limitations related to the amount of data involving in this kind of comminications?, my app process data acquired by a 4472 dsa PXI card, and then show results thru typical graphics...
    Also, i have noted when i perform "control tasks", they have a bad effect on my app (in the server machine), in terms of performance.
    The problems of excessive memory consumption can be avoided, when we used conventional PCs ?  and, ¿The monitoring and the control affect my application performance? 
    Thanks in advance.
    JFT

    Hi Ankita, i will read that document now...
    I work with a conventional PC and a PXI (8175). The problem is when i try to see the remote front panel thru a LAN, my application and the Remote Panel crashes, and the messages is "Not enough memory to complete this remote panel operation....". So, my question is, if it is posible to  avoid this kind of problems? or remote panels are limited to a little apps... My App acquire a lot of data (thru a DSA 4472 daq) and then it process and shows that data without problems until remote panel is activated.
    Sorry my english... and thanks anyway

  • Not enough memory to complete this remote panel operation

    I am developing my application in cFP 2000. I am using remote panel to view and operate the application. I am able to view the front panel from a host PC on the network for the first time through Internet Explorer (IE6). If I close the IE and then try to access the remote front panel, I get the error "Not enough memory to complete this remote panel operation" What could be the reason for this error. Please help me solve this problem. Thanks in advance.

    I agree with Jonas suggestion re: RT Engine Info.
    I beileve use need the following line in your LabVIEW.INI file to get that option.
    targetmeminfo=true
    I threw together a VI that tracks memory usange vs time VI that has preved quire helpful. I will attach this Vi along with a llb that I pulled down of this site somewhere. They have some supprt VI that are required.
    What I suggest you do is fire this VI up and watch how your memory behaves. What you will see (hopefully) is memory useage that converges on some constant level. When you open FP via LV-RT or the web served FP's, there will be spikes in memory usage. When these remote FP are closed, the memory usage will drop-off.
    If the memory usage keeps climbing, you have a problem!
    NOW LE
    T ME STOP and acknowledge that you may have some difficulty in trying to use the Get RT Engine info or using my utility if you really are out of memory. Let me suggest that you start by opening and running my utility first. If your code will not run and load with my utility running, don't give up! Try targeting the application and building the VI on the cFP 2000 and setting it to auto-boot. I have found that the compiled vesrions use a much smaller foot print than the development versions. Start your app by ressetting it and then target the cFP unit. You then load and start the utility I attached.
    I have successfully deplyed app's that would only run as built app's on the cFP's. The cFP is very good at making you very aware of how you are using memory. THey are just a little tricky to work with. They make you appreciate the luxury of working with the cFP 2020's.
    Post your code, and I'll take a look if you like.

  • Im getting an not enough memory to complete this scanning operation error

    I am using a WIA-HP CLJ CM1312 Scanner with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard Version 9.4.6
    This machine is Windows XP with 3gigs of RAM and plenty of HDD space....
    When I try to make a color copy at a Resolution of 1200DPI I get an error saying that - "There is not enough memory to complete this scanning operation."   It only works at 600DPI
    I dont understand why I am getting this error.  I would have thought my upgrade to 3gigs of RAM would have fixed this error.  

    1200 dpi can actually mean a lot of memory.

  • AEGP Plugin MediaIO Plugin:MediaIO2 error:0x4 not enough memory to complete this encoding (5027::12)

    I am working on a video project in After Effects CS4 (with Trapcode Particular preset) that's 2:12 minutes long on a Windows 7 operating
    system. I'm finished editing for the most part, but everytime I put the video in Render Queue it renders the video for a few seconds (sometimes minutes) and then stops with this message appearing: "After Effects logged one error: AEGP Plugin Media IO Plugin: MediaIO2 error: 0x4 not enough memory to complete this encoding (5027::12)". After I closed this message I checked the part of the video that did render was where I saved it to be as a normal file on my Desktop. I made this video with 2 compositions: 1 for the actual importing and editing and the 2nd for the rendering and thinning it out (this is because when I import the footage from my camera it's always very wide in after effects) There is nothing particularly abnormal about the video, not very heavy or anything and most of it isn't animated, just film. The size of the source material for the video is about 4.0 to 8.7MB.   
    Computer's Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU  T5500 @ 1.66GHz
    Computer's RAM: 2.00

    First of all, CS4 does not work well with non-production codecs like MP4. Use the Adobe Media Encoder (or something similar) to convert your footage to a production codec (Cineform, DNxHD, Quicktime with the Photo JPEG codec or Quicktime with the PNG codec).
    Second, you're running AE on a system with only 2 GB of RAM? Good heavens, man - no wonder it ran out of memory! Upgrade that to 4 if at all possible. (Upgrade to much more than that if you have a 64-bit OS and plan to upgrade AE ever. Although, on a machine as old and slow as that, you might be better off getting a new machine if you want to do anything serious in AE.)
    Third, what's your exact version number of AE? You should be on 9.0.2 if I recall correctly.
    Fourth, your video shouldn't be looking weird in AE. It's probably misinterpreting the pixel aspect ratio of your footage. Fix the interpretation and you shouldn't have to have a separate comp for changing its size.

  • Error msg - not enough memory available for this task - chm file

    Hi All
    I am using RoboHelp for HTML 8.0 and creating chm file.  I am using context sensitive help and the F1 key functionality.  I have in the past created some map ID's with F1 and they have worked properly with our company software application.  Now, I have a different database with our company and a larger help file and it is not working.  I am told that the database should work.  I also have lots of memory.  I am working off of my hard drive which is where the .exe is for the company application and my chm file.  I can open my .chm file.  When I go into the application and press F1 where I created the map ID;s I get the message, not enough memory available for this task and also topic not available. Quit one or more programs to increase memory.
    I have lots of memory and my file is only 598kb.  I also only have RoboHelp and the application running.  When I did a search, I found an article for a fix from 2004 from Adobe - Rb_46124 - not sure if this is the fix but the steps dont match since it is old.
    Please help me.
    Thanks

  • Cannot load large CSV files in SignalExpress("Not enough memory to complete this operation" error)

    Hi guys,
    I'm new here and just  have browsed
    some of the related topics here regarding my problem but could not seem
    to find anything to help me fix this problem so I decided to post this.
    I currently have a saved waveform from an oscilloscope that is quite
    big in size(around 700MB, CSV file format) and I want to view this on
    my PC using SignalExpress. Unfortunately when I try to load the file
    using "Load/Save Signals -> Load From ASCII", I always get the "Not
    enough memory to complete this operation" error. How can we view and
    analyze large waveform files in SignalExpress? Is there a workaround on
    this? 
    Thanks,
    Louie
    P.S.>I'm very new to Signal Express and haven't modified any settings on it. 

    Hi Louie,
    Are you encountering a read-only message when you tried to save the boot.ini file? If so, you can try this method: right-click on My Computer >> Select "Properties", and go to the "Advanced" tab. Select "Settings", and on the next screen, there is a button called Edit. If you click on Edit you should be able to modify the "/3GB" tag in boot.ini. Are you able to change it in this manner? After reboot, you can reload the file to see if it helps.
    To open a file in SignalExpress, a contiguous chunk of memory is required. If SignalExpress cannot find a contiguous memory chunk that is large enough to hold this file, then an error will be generated. This can happen when fragmentation occurs in memory, and fragmentation (memory management) is managed by Windows, so unfortunately this is a limitation that we have.
    As an alternative, have you looked at NI DIAdem before? It is a software tool that allows users to manage and analyze large volumes of data, and has some unique memory management method that lets it open and work on large amounts of data. There is an evaluation version which is available for download; you can try it out and see if it is suitable for your application. 
    Best regards,

  • Error on running LV application-not enough memory to complete this operation

    Hi,
    Developed an application for multi plot graph.
    The graph is having around 25 plots and and its fetching many records from the database for the pltting purpose.
    This LV application is a module of a VB real time application which is running always on the PC.
    Now when the user tries to plot the graph...some times he is getting an error message as the following
    "not enough memory to complete this operation"
    What are the reasons for such an error message and how do i eliminate this error?

    LabVIEW cannot allocate the memory needed to complete the task at hand.
    Prevent data copies of large datasets.
    Reduce the amount of data in your graphs. (Not all point can be seen as individual points, if the scale is from 0-1000 you can plot 1000 points, but with the scale 0-1000000 you can also have 1000 point instead of 1000000 and see almost no difference.
    Regards,
