Platform

 

Operating system

 

Windows 2000


Error

 

"There was an error processing a page. There is a problem reading this document"

and

"Could not find the extended graphic state named "."


Symptoms

 

If the following operations are performed in sequence, an error message about the extended graphic state appears:

1. Pitstop edits are made to a PDF.

2. "Save As" function is used in Adobe Acrobat.

3. Further edits are made with PitStop, Dotshop, or other tools.


Cause

  Unknown

Solution

 

If you see this error message, DO NOT save the PDF again or the PDF will be damaged. Close the file immediately and reopen it to perform further edits.

When using PitStop, it is best to use the "Save" command instead of "Save As". If you must use "Save As", close the file immediately after the "Save As" is completed.

Permanent fix:
