My grateful thanks to Art and Syed for much help and moral support. Syed - you were right, I should have tried MIF-washing the problem chapter first. After doing so, I got a .ps file that Distiller could distill, but with a Ps error, and recovery, producing a PDF with the message 'PostScript error (undefined filename)' where the problem graphic should have been - and thus identifying the problem file.
What Distiller actually said was 'A PostScript error occurred. FrameMaker is attempting recovery.' That's a *really* helpful error message ;-) And one that also implies co-operation between Distiller and FrameMaker, which I doubt. I am reminded of some prototype software I once had to work with that died with the message 'Got surprised by error'. So this is a substantial step forward: I now only have to find out what was wrong with this graphic (a PDF). Converting it to a TIFF fixed the issue. Many thanks to all. [These are all author-suppled graphics files - often a bit of a nightmare, I find.] -- Steve _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
