This kind of feedback is great. I can't even consider upgrading until this is fixed because I can only use the Print Book (PS then distill) option on some of my books as they have mixed paper sizes.

I created a couple of dummy files based on the Harvard outline factory template, then created a new book to include the test files. Saved everything, reopened the book and tried to print the book - crashed right away when selecting the "Print Book" command; then tried to print book with all files open - crash again; then tried to use "Print Selected Files.." command - crashed again. Then I tried a legacy FM test project - upgraded all the files and book to FM 11, and tried printing book to PDF printer - crashed. Save As PDF works for the book and printing individual .fm files to PDF works fine too. Not a game-stopper in my workflow, but a bit of an annoyance that will have to get fixed fairly soon I think. I'll be sending log files and examples into Adobe tech when I get back into my office next week. ________________________________ From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com<mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com> [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com]<mailto:[mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com]> On Behalf Of Scott Prentice Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2012 1:35 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com<mailto:framers at lists.frameusers.com> Subject: Re: FrameMaker 11 cannot print a .ps file: others on Adobe forums agree Rob... "Nobody" is a bit strong. I can print a book to PS from FM11 without trouble. When I try to print an earlier version FM book to PS, nothing happens unless I open all of the files in that book (no crash, just nothing). It does appear that there are a number of print to PS/PDF issues that *some* people are having. Hopefully, Adobe can replicate these problems and address them in a future update. Be sure to send in your files and exact steps to replicate the crash.

Please look at the Adobe forums, six complaints. What I did: I created a new book in TCS4 using FM template files book, Index and TOC. The fresh book crashed as soon as I hit print. I have miffed I have huffed I have puffed I am now miffed It is obvious from the Adobe Forums that nobody can print a from FM11 to PS This is a new and very expensive product, one would expect some elementary testing of this key function.
