are any dependencies between the publishing and say, back-end systems.

Hi Marcus,

The new EDD is done, and it works.

The only thing I can't seem to produce is what I'm asking for help on.

Go back to the box, read over the minimum requirements, and make sure

Hi Ragnar,

Try skipping the autorun installer and navigate to the FrameMaker folder on 
the CD. See if you can run the Setup.exe directly from there.

 A recent thread on August 3 addressed Distiller crashes, mainly with Frame 
7.2 p158 and Distiller 8.1. Some issues revolved around .tps files left behind

(http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc2f3d0), which indicates that this 
is apparently a known issue that may be resolved with a future version of Frame 
(8.0??), and as Arnis Gubins pointed out on that Acrobat forum thread, What's 
happened with the 8.1 Distiller is that the default mode will no longer allow 
the postscript file being distilled to access other external files. One needs 
to configure Distiller to start with the -F switch, which can't be done using 
Save As PDF (it always calls Distiller without the switch). 

I have just published the beginning to a small whitepaper on the /F 
parameter issue. Please see 
http://www.grafikhuset.net/PubliPDF/tech_distiller_81_quirks.html for details.
 
 Until upgrading to Acrobat 8.0 this morning, I have been successfully using 
Grafikhuset Publi PDF-a PDF creator that enables me to create color-corrected, 
web-ready and press-ready PDFs in a very automated way. Now I can't. It seems 
that Distiller 8.1 does not allow execution of external files anymore. So what 
do I do? Uninstall Acrobat 8.1 and reinstall Acrobat 8.0? Do I have no other 
recourse but to upgrade to Frame 8.0? Is there a workaround or a patch that I 
can enable if I'm not yet ready to upgrade to Frame 8.0? 

I can confirm that Grafikhuset Publi PDF queues currently cannot 
function with Adobe Distiller 8.1 (for the very same reason -- the new 
Distiller default setting), but is working hard on a fix to this problem. Users 
should downgrade Acrobat or use GPL Ghostscript 8.60 as JobInterpreter in the 
interim.

The new Grafikhuset Publi PDF revision is expected to be ready late in 
August 2007, i.e. within a week or so.

All the best
