Hi Bodvar >If you were using Structured FM, it is a memory hog, and you can get >all sorts of anomalies, usually starting with graphical unstability >(on screen). Restarting FM or rebooting (Windoze) remedies that.
I am using structured FM, but I'm on Mac ;-) Mac OS X is basically BSD Unix, and FrameMaker executes on it inside wrapper software that emulates the older OS 9 system (sounds horrendous, but it works). Distiller, on the other hand, is OS X-native, and so outside of that wrapper, and all applications have protected memory. While side effects are not impossible (for example, I had a complete system lock-up today), they are rare and unlikely. >Also some other things can affect the use of temporary files that >Distiller uses etc. I have at times had to tidy up the temp folders to >get things going. Um. I've learned to shove a Ps file at Distiller a second time if it barfs the first time, but when I tried that (in the original problem scenario), it failed every time. Today, distilling the *same* PS file works. So clearly it's some sort of transient Distiller problem. >Nothing to worry about, I should think. Not now that it's gone away, for sure, but it spoiled my day when it looked like a brick wall the first time. -- Steve _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
