Bad OP entry in ...: index ...

An Output Processor (OP) DLL exists to handle each format in which the application can generate output.  There is an entry in the application's .INI file for each OP.  The indicated entry is incorrectly formatted.  The incorrect entry must be either manually corrected or the software will have to be reinstalled.


Character (...) glyph drawing error. Typeface: ...

An error occurred while trying to draw a character.  This may occur if free memory is exhausted.  If so, close other active applications and try the operation again.  Another possible cause is that

the typeface outline description file associated with this font may be incomplete or corrupted.  Choose a different typeface and try the operation again.  If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.


Common Dialog Error: ...

The Common Dialog handler returned the indicated error code number.  While this is not necessarily a fatal condition, it should be reported to Technical Support.


Incompatible version of ...

The program has detected a version of the indicated DLL (Dynamic Link Library) which is not compatible with the rest of the application.  Close all active applications and restart Windows.  If this problem persists, contact Technical Support.


Instance table full

The program has detected an internal error.  Save your work and restart the program.  Please report this situation to Technical Support.


Internal Error

The program has detected an internal error.  Save your work and restart the program.  Please report this situation to Technical Support.


Invalid line style

The program has detected an internal error.  Save your work and restart the program.  Please report this situation to Technical Support.


More than 1 native OP

An Output Processor (OP) DLL exists to handle each format in which the application can generate output.  There is an entry in the application's .INI file for each OP.  These entries indicate more than one OP is the "native" OP.  The native OP is the one used to output to the screen.  Only one native OP is allowed.  The .INI file must be either manually corrected or the software will have to be reinstalled.


More than ... Output Processors

An Output Processor (OP) DLL exists to handle each format in which the application can generate output.  There is an entry in the application's .INI file for each OP.  These entries indicate more than the maximum allowable number of OPs.  The extra OPs are ignored.


Native OP is NOT Native

An Output Processor (OP) DLL exists to handle each format in which the application can generate output.  There is an entry in the application's .INI file for each OP.  The OP that the .INI file entry indicates is the "native" OP (the native OP is the one used to output to the screen) isn't really a native OP.  The .INI file must be either manually corrected or the software will have to be reinstalled.


No native OPs

An Output Processor (OP) DLL exists to handle each format in which the application can generate output.  There is an entry in the application's .INI file for each OP.  These entries indicate no OP is the "native" OP.  The native OP is the one used to output to the screen.  A native OP is required.  The .INI file must be either manually corrected or the software will have to be reinstalled.


No Type Manager faces available

The Imaging Subsystem can't locate any typefaces it can use.  There are entries in the application's .INI file which indicate the typeface technologies (such as TrueType, Adobe Type Manager, Golden Software Symbols) the Imaging Subsystem is to use.  However, the Imaging Subsystem can't locate any typefaces at all.  This is highly unusual.  You report this situation to Technical Support.


Null P function called
Null OP function called

The program has detected a non-fatal internal error.  Save your work and restart the program.  Please report this situation to Technical Support.


Out of global memory

Free memory may be exhausted.  Close all active applications and restart Windows.  If you get this message often, contact Technical Support.


Out of local memory

Free memory may be exhausted.  Close all active applications and restart Windows.  If you get this message often, contact Technical Support.


Too many line styles

The application has exceeded the Imaging Subsystem's limit on the number of different line styles.  Since it is unlikely this limit will be reached in normal operation, it may be indicative of an internal program error.  Please contact Technical Support.


Too many points

A graphical object has exceeded the Imaging Subsystem's limit (about 8,000) on the number of vertices per object.  The number of vertices will have to be reduced either by editing or deleting the object.


Unable to find ...

The indicated DLL (Dynamic Link Library) can't be located.  Make sure the file is installed and you have the proper access permissions.


Unable to initialize ...

The indicated DLL (Dynamic Link Library) can't be initialized.  Make sure the file is installed and you have the proper access permissions. If so, the file may be corrupted and the software may have to be reinstalled.  If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.


Unable to load ...

The indicated DLL (Dynamic Link Library) can't be loaded into memory.  Make sure the file is installed and you have the proper access permissions. If so, the file may be corrupted and the software may have to be reinstalled.  If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.
