           Product: Ghostscript
           Version: 8.62

Hello,

I have one more problem regarding to VM usage with high resolution output. I
tried to process pdf and had follows:

C:\gs\gs8.62\lib>..\bin\gswin32c.exe -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=tiff32nc
 -r2540 -sOutputFile=d35.tif D35-100-A-28963303-MOR9.pdf
GPL Ghostscript 8.62 (2008-02-29)
Copyright (C) 2008 Artifex Software, Inc.  All rights reserved.

Processing pages 1 through 1.
Page 1

   **** Warning: File encountered 'VMerror' error while processing an image.

Ghostscript didn't generate output file because of 2gb output file size
limitation, but I saw output of my own device (which doesn't have this
limitation) and some images was lost.

I built debug version of Ghostscript and went inside with debugger. I found that
problem file contains type3 image. Ghostscript creates image8 memory device to
render this image. It tries to allocate about 1.6 Gb of memory for this device
and doesn't get this memory. It doesn't try to create command list as rendering
device (also base device for tiff32nc was command list).

Do you have any patches/suggestions to fix this problem?

Best regards

Leonid Lukomskij
