Hi Shlomo,
Yes, that's true. I apologize for looking beyond the obvious. Thanks for your insight. Rick From: [email protected] [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Shlomo Perets Sent: Monday, May 20, 2013 8:06 AM To: 'VLM TechSubs' Cc: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: RE: PDF and Alternatives to Acrobat ... PDFill Editor ??? [Unless I am missing something.] FrameMaker has the bundled/integrated "PDF Creation Add-on" (=headless Distiller). So even if one does not have Acrobat installed, creation of PDFs from within FrameMaker, with full support for interactive features / pdfmark processing etc. is available (no less than the creation support available with Distiller in the full version of Acrobat). [BTW I know of a few TimeSavers users who installed TimeSavers/Assistants in conjunction with the PDF Creation Add-on]. So the discussion should really be as to alternatives for Acrobat in case one need to edit/modify PDFs, and not on creation of PDFs authored with FrameMaker.

PDFill Editor ??? Hi everyone, A while ago, we had this discussion about replacements for Acrobat, from a FrameMaker perspective. Seemed like not much was available. At the time, Rick mentioned that any replacement would need to provide support for PDFmarks PostScript code (if I have that correct). So I wrote off to various vendors. Most had either never heard of this or do not support it. But one vendor, PDFill (see below), sent back this link to look at: http://www.pdfill.com/pdf_batch_command.html#9 Rick (and others :), I don't know enough to know whether this information has any connection at all with PDFmarks PostScript code. Would you (anyone with the expertise) be willing to take a look ... it's quite brief, I think. Thank you kindly, Elchanan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
