Richard, thanks: "Second, it's a bad idea to keep changing printers from Adobe PDF to a physical printer and back again, which generally causes the available fonts to change, potentially affecting the formatting and pagination of the document."
I had not considered this one (though, I don't think I encountered that). Also, I guess I usually do print from my PDFs and recently switched over to doing a save as PDF anyways. It occurs to me that I was seconding the idea based on memory of how it used to be for me. :-) -----Original Message----- From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Combs, Richard Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2013 10:39 AM To: Shmuel Wolfson; Framers Subject: RE: Feature Request - Print to File Warning I strongly suggest that you reconsider your workflow instead. First, there is no reason to print to file in order to create a PDF. If you're using a very old version of FM or are still superstitious about using Save As PDF, simply select Adobe PDF as your printer and leave Print to File turned off. You'll be prompted to choose a file name and location, and your PDF will be created directly by the same process as if you'd printed to a PostScript file and then distilled it. Second, it's a bad idea to keep changing printers from Adobe PDF to a physical printer and back again, which generally causes the available fonts to change, potentially affecting the formatting and pagination of the document. If you're creating PDFs, print the PDFs, not the FM files. I recommend installing the SetPrint plugin from sundorne.com, which makes Adobe PDF your default printer in FM regardless of what you default printer is in Windows. Richard G.
