About the network switch over. We have just done that and how well applications play depends upon what protocols and configurations are set up, and how switches are managed (oh so many variables).

Certainly, when we had Novell (which served well for decades) it had an annoying habit of resetting SMB connections periodically (atalk was dropped a few years prior). The new MS network doesn't seem to do that, or if it does, it seems to be masked.

I would suggest that if you have any issues after the switch, that you communicate your concerns immediately with the tech guys because there may be a fix they can offer.

One thing that can be ruled out as the problem is FM.

Hi Gary
That's interesting. It sounds very like the problems we've seen: 3000+
page docs, lots of conditional text, sometimes can't create a PDF over
the network.
We're using a Novell server. Our IS team have checked for choke points,
overloading etc, and can't find any problems. They reckon it's just
Novell. We're going to be changing to a Microsoft server anyway, and
they reckon that'll be happier with Frame. I hope they're right!
Like you, we've "resolved" the issue by copying all the components to a
local drive before creating the PDF. We're ok with having to do that
part of the workflow locally, as long as we can keep editing the source
files over the network.
Cheers
Rebecca
