Hello! Does anyone know what this error means?

349: Error while saving pdf report (PitStop Library error code 8008): PDF Access wrong object type error.

I'm seeing it in the Switch error messages for various Pitstop elements where Preflight reports are saved, but I don't know what exactly is causing it.

Thank you!

That 8008 “wrong object type” error usually means PitStop is hitting something unexpected in the PDF structure while trying to generate the report. It’s often caused by a malformed or non-standard PDF.

I’d try saving the file again from Acrobat (or running it through a PDF optimizer) before it hits the PitStop step. Also check if it only happens with certain PDFs — that can help narrow it down to a file-specific issue.
