I seem to be the only user in the forum who has commented, and I have to drop out now, because as I said I am not familiar with using these specific functions in QPDF. Maybe someone else here who knows more about these functions and their possible limitations can help you.

EOutOfMemory DrawLine/DrawPath : This is looking like 'bloat'...

This is looking like 'bloat' I am unintentionally creating when writing the vector data to the PDF document. So, I need to find where, perhaps, I'm writing duplicate data or something along those lines. Is there a way to look at the 'guts' of the file I'm creating to see what the duplicate data might be?

I don't think you have much chance of finding the actual problem by trying different parameters which do and do not cause a crash, although you may be able to identify the limits. Since I never use QPDF to draw lines and paths, I do not have a feel for whether 13000 is a big number or not. But I do debug Delphi applications and exceptions.

I would start from the exception message, which may not show the same address as the break in the debugger if the debugger cannot see the source at the exception address. If you have an exception you must have the address at which it occurs. If this is an address in your main program, and you have a link map, then you can find which module that is. If it is not in your main program, use Process Explorer to show DLL load addresses (before the crash occurs) and you will know which DLL it is in, and if you have a link map for the DLL, which module. If the exception address is not in your process at all, then you are out of luck, but at least you know more: that it is most likely a bug causing a stack overwrite or wild branch. If the exception is in the memory manager, then it is worth investing in the time to get the version of Fastmm which provides easy-to-use monitoring and debugging features. But if it is not in the memory manager, the knowledge acquired by all this may lead you to a module for which the 'QPDF source' (which it sounds as if you have) does not include the source. I wish you luck!

Unfortunately, dropping the Dpi to 300 doesn't always work. Here's the 'typical' call stack for what it's worth...

TPDFPageTree.PainterChange(???)
TPDFPainter.RunOnChanged
TPDFPainter.DrawLine(469.2,661.92,469.44,661.92)

When I drop the Dpi to 300, I'm able to output a 24x36 sheet. However, I'm surprised because I'm only writing vector data. Why would the Dpi make a difference in this case?

And why don't other documents fail at 600 dpi with more vectors?

Update:

Perhaps it has something to do with memory. I've been able to create A, B, and C size sheets using the same data. However, each time I try D (24"x36") the crash occurs.
