Dan, When you Save As PDF or use File > Publish, all of that is taken care of for you in the background.

I might be going back too far in the annals of FrameMaker history, but I recall that one of the reasons to ensure that Adobe PDF was the printer selected was to make sure that everything looked the same on screen as it would ultimately appear in the PDF, as the font information used in the display was somewhat dependent upon the print driver selected. At least at one point, depending on the printer you had selected, having the printer not being Adobe PDF was a Bad Thing(tm). Is that no longer the case, or am I misremembering? -Dan -----Original Message----- From: Framers <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Reng Winfried Sent: Friday, March 29, 2019 7:24 AM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Framers] PDFs and FM 2019 Hi Dan, I also have FM 2019 64 bit and could not install SetPrint. However, I think it's not needed any longer (only, if you want to print to a file). If you create a PDF via Save As PDF or via the Publish pod (with Use Acrobat Distiller for PDF generation activated), the PDF is created correctly. I do not notice any difference, when the printer is set to a physical printer or to Adobe PDF. When you create the PDF without Distiller, then you do not need SetPrint anyway. I also have some issues when FrameMaker creates the PDF. I hope that this gets fixed soon!

Sundorne's Setprint no longer appears to work, presumably because it was a 32-bit application and is incompatible with 64-bit FM. Is there a 64-bit version of that utility or some other method to always set the printer to Adobe PDF whenever opening a document? The error I receive is as follows: ... 2. More of an FYI than an issue: By default, FrameMaker 2019 is configured to NOT use Acrobat Distiller to create PDFs... why I have no idea. When I used the default config, my PDFs had all sorts of missing elements throughout the document... placed graphics, running feet, you name it. It was only when I checked the box to use Distiller that I got fully intact PDFs. _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected] _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected] _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to [email protected] Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to [email protected]
