Offending command: setcolor
Setcolor errors can be caused by incompatibilities between non-Adobe PostScript interpreters and Freehand or InDesign.
FreeHand leads to setcolor errors
Upgrade to a newer version of FreeHand or a true Adobe RIP.
InDesign 1.x and non-Adobe RIPs
InDesign 1.x documents that contains tints can cause a PostScript error “typecheck” offending command “setcolor” when printed to a PostScript emulation device like an HP Laserjet 4000. I am not aware of any solutions besides printing to a printer that uses a real Adobe interpreter.

I am trying to convert a pagemaker 7.0 file into pdf. But when I export the file to paf, it display the error %%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: setcolor ]%%
Stack:
0.105
-mark-
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%”.
Can you please tell me the solution.
That doesn’t ring a bell. Posting your question on forums.b4print.com is a good idea – lots of prepress guru’s there who might help out.
