Printing to a .pdf
There should be a logical printer on the system named Adobe PDF or something similar. But just select that as your printer and print to it. It should prompt you for a destination file and that's that. You do not need to print to a PS file and then distill, so make sure that, in the FM print dialog box, Print to File is NOT checked.

Printing to a .pdf
Good afternoon. Seems like such a dumb question but I'll be darned if I can finger it out. I desire to produce a .pdf file of a large book. The file has been produced before and has actually been sumitted to a commercial printer in the pdf format. Using FrameMaker 7.1 on Windows XP running as a guest OS on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.4. This version of Frame needs to see a post script printer on the system. While there is no physical PS printer installed, a driver is present for a GCC BLP Elite v52.3. This arrangement has worked in the past. Walked through printer setup in Frame; frame sees the printer. Actually sent a file to this printer and the file queued up. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Index Formatting in Framemaker 7.0
I am using Framemaker 7.0 and have created a big index with many sub-entries, but I do not like the standard style the program uses to put the index together. Instead of having sub-entries appear on a line below the main entry I would like the sub-entries to appear on the same line, separated from the main entry by a colon and from subsequent sub-entries by a semi-colon. Can you help me do so? Example: Instead of: File Open, 24 Save, 25 I prefer: File: open, 24; save, 25 _ Windows Live™ Hotmail®:…more than just e-mail. http://windowslive.com/explore?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_t2_hm_justgotbetter_explore_022009 ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.

PDF error
Fellow Framers: I would search the archives, but the frameusers website is still not up and running in a user friendly condition, so I must bring my problem directly to you folks Previous to migrating to a new computer, I was able to generate beautiful PDF files with the save as command. I'm running 7.2 and distiller seems to be in place and running, but it hits upon an error and quits without generating anything. I'm working in a book which is no more than a couple of hundred pages with a TOC and a smattering of a glossary. The error log I get is as follows: %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%% %%[Page: 1]%% %%[ Error: undefinedresource; OffendingCommand: findresource ]%% Stack: /CIDFont /KozMinStd-Bold {--pop-- 4 --index-- --add--} /KozMinStd-Bold-hf /WinCharSet-H /KozMinStd-BoldH %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %% I assume that the "undefined resource" is the issue. Is there something missing from Distiller? A programmer, I am not. So I have no way of comprehending what might be amiss. Any hints? ~ Don Spencer donandju...@earthlink.net ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.

Printing to a .pdf
Good afternoon. Seems like such a dumb question but I'll be darned if I can finger it out. I desire to produce a .pdf file of a large book. The file has been produced before and has actually been sumitted to a commercial printer in the pdf format. Using FrameMaker 7.1 on Windows XP running as a guest OS on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.4. This version of Frame needs to see a post script printer on the system. While there is no physical PS printer installed, a driver is present for a GCC BLP Elite v52.3. This arrangement has worked in the past. Walked through printer setup in Frame; frame sees the printer. Actually sent a file to this printer and the file queued up. Any thoughts? Thanks.
