Sharing a problem that has vexed us and our translation vendor for a few days now. We found the solution after much trial & error, so wanted to share this here in case someone else runs into it. We tested on two different systems just to be sure.
Operating System Windows 10 / Windows 7 Ultimate Applications FrameMaker 2017, version: 14.0.4.511 Illustrator CC 2018, version 22.1 (64 bit) Photoshop CC 2018, version 19.1.4 Distiller DC, Professional Version 18.11.20040281318 Conditions to reproduce the problem The FrameMaker file contains a link to an .ai file. The linked .ai file contains a linked .psd file. The .psd file has a clipping mask in Illustrator, and part of the clipped image that is not visible extends past the artboard edge in the .ai file. If Microsoft Security Essentials (Windows 7) or Windows Defender (Windows 10) real-time protection is turned on, the PostScript file will take much longer to print than if real-time protection was off. Not tested using other versions of Windows. In the FrameMaker book that brought this to our attention, there were 127 pages and 31 linked .ai files that met the criteria above to reproduce the problem. Printing to a Postscript file took around 14 hours to complete. Once real-time file protection was turned off, printing to a PostScript file took around 5 minutes. -Carla [Zebra_Logo_Stacked_K_small] Carla Martinek Translation Coordinator & Editor ZEBRA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION 2S 081 3 Overlook Point T: +1 847 793 5616 F: +1 847 353 2959 cmarti...@zebra.com<mailto:cmarti...@zebra.com> www.zebra.com<http://www.zebra.com/> Follow Zebra!
