**** WARNING: The .setpdfwrite operator has been deprecated and will be removed entirely
              in the next release of Ghostscript. The functionality of this operator has
              been reduced to increasing the size of the VM threshold. If you believe you
              have a real need for this then you should replace your call to .setpdfwrite
              with:
