Catherine, Have you tried simplifying a path by removing a lot of the points and testing that to see if there is a threshold at which you receive the limitcheck error. Try with just one image and remove the complex path and redraw it very crudely with only 50 points or so. If that works, keep increasing the number of points until you determine the threshold.
