Thanks for the quick replies! Let me try to supply a little more information: * I'm using images I have scanned (on my HP x2000 Workstation/Epson Expression 1680) at 300ppi, cleaned up, then resampled and resized to 120ppi. These are all grayscale, 8bit/channel, saved as .eps files. * The end use is to have these pages digitally printed in-house on one of our Xerox Docutex printers. * Yes, I have tried printing a postscript file. After dragging and dropping the .ps file onto the Distiller window, resulting in a PostScript error: "%%[Error: undefined; OffendingCommand:distillsave ]%% %%[Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced.]%%" The console.log reports in the last 9 lines, error [499] *** _NSAutoreleaseNoPool( ): A variety of (numbered) objects of class NSCFD number, dictionary or string "autoreleased with no pool in place, just leaking." * "Print to file', using the PDF file option, in the Printer options, yields the same (low resolution) images. Finally, Leonard, a little unexpected success this morning! * Using Quark's new 'Export as PDF'** feature today, rendered the images properly, but the filesize is HUGE. Quark file is 2.3MB, PDF file is 87.5MB! (I have used the trial version of a PdfCompressor tool that gives me a more reasonable 16.6MB file.) **I remember having recently heard users should avoid this method of PDF creation, as this would create headaches later in the workflow... Was this information a spoof? Paul To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdfbasics.html
