HI C2, Did you try a MIF wash? This means saving all the files, as well as the book file, as MIF, and then resaving as FM. This and perhaps restarting your computer usually helps in these situations.
The simple way to do the MIF wash to a book is to install the BookMIFwash driver (BookComponentMIFWash.dll found in the ) that comes with your FM installation - search for it in one of the FM subfolders - there is a text readme file (fm_bookmifwash.c) that tells you how to install it such that it shows up on your FM menu line. This, in the past, has saved me many times. (Oddly enough, it's under SAMPLES>SCRIPTS and UTILITIES in my installation.) I currently run the latest FM - so now I do a Publish>PDF which is usually fine. Haven't had to do a MIF wash in a while, thank goodness. Much Luck, OrlyZ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2022 17:06:57 +0000 From: cuc tu <cu...@hotmail.com> To: "framers@lists.frameusers.com" <framers@lists.frameusers.com> Subject: [Framers] Save to PDF - Minutes turned into hours Hi All, One-by-one, we're all experiencing a problem saving as PDF. We're still using FM12. It does not matter if we're working on the network or local HDD. We know the IT group changed virus protection from Sophos to Windows Security and we've disabled everything we can. I'm not sure if that is related or if there could have been a Windows update that has affected this version of FM. We've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Any suggestions? Thanks, C2 ________________________________ _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to listad...@frameusers.com
