Ghostscript error while converting PDF to Postscript
Hi,

I have been using Ghostscript to convert PDF to Postscript (PS) file.
GS version : 8.15.2. GS command used is :
gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=output1.ps input1.pdf

File format conversion to PS is success in majority of the cases but some PDF files are producing 'Unrecoverable error' as below -

ERROR: /undefined in --get--

--dict:8/8(L)-- --dict:10/13(L)-- R8 --dict:10/10(ro)(G)-- R8

Current allocation mode is local
Last OS error: 2
ESP Ghostscript 815.02: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Please let me know what could be the actual reason for this error and how can I go ahead with resolving it.
Thanks in advance.
