However, the 'OUT' tells me this is an outline (bookmark), and negative values are permitted (the outline node is closed, hiding the children, when the file is opened) To figure out the actual problem I'd need to see a file which fails (and I don't really want to download an 83Mb file. At the moment I would guess that there is something wrong with the pdfmark, but you could try upgrading to a newer version of Ghostscript, 8.71 is 2 years old now. If that fails you could open a bug report at http://bugs.ghostscript.com, attaching the smallest file you can make which exhibits the problem. Ken
