in trying to boil it down to an easy example, the error first went away, apparently. in the process of clarifying this, I think I found the real problem: if the total length of the complete filename (inclduing path, which was lon in my original case) exceeds 35 characters, one gets the error, otherwise it vanishes, i.e. .PSPIC 123456789_123456789_123456789_12345 works OK, while .PSPIC 123456789_123456789_123456789_123456 produces the `numeric overflow'. file content has nothing to do with it, so I think you'll can reproduce it with the above two lines (simply soft-link both th funny filenames above to the same arbitrary ps-file with a picture). if you then put .PSPIC 123456789_123456789_123456789_12345 .PSPIC 123456789_123456789_123456789_123456 in a file, you get one numeric overflow message. is this enough, or do you need anything else? joerg
