Hi 

Im using Orcad 17.2 and the script used for exporting schematic pdf's is Ghost script gswin64c.exe. But Now i'm getting an error while exporting pdf which is,

ERROR: undefined

OFFENDING COMMAND: G2UBegin
STACK:
/Font
/TT15Ct00

Following info will help

Two pages were generated out of 12 then it shows the above error.

Windows 64 bit SP1

Converter path :- c:\program files\gs\gs9.22\bin\gswin64c.exe

Converter arguments : -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=$::capPdfUtil::mPdfFilePath -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE $::capPdfUtil::mPSFilePath

Could you please help me to resolve this?

    You haven't mentioned which exact version of OrCAD Capture (I guess) that you are using, check from Help>About, but I suspect that the schematic may be corrupted, try copying the schematic pages to a new design, or try moving the pages to a new schematic folder in the same design and then add the pages to the root schematic folder one at a time and try printing the PDF for one page, then two and so on to isolate the pages with the issue. If that fails, you will likely need to involve Cadence Support, either directly, or via your Cadence Channel Partner, to investigate the issue.

    Problem solved,

    I dont know the exact reason but I assume it was the mistake of printer. I have changed the default printer (OrCADPS_17.2) in "Devices and Printers" to another one and gave that name of new printer in "Postscript Driver" coloumn. Now I can able to print pdf. I think the OrCADPS_17.2 couldnt able to translate the script.
