Going nutso with a PDF problem
TCS 2 - all components up to date with the latest patches I have successfully distilled this FM document many times before, when all of a sudden poof- I am getting this bizarre message: When you create a postscript file, you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts. Please go to printer properties Adobe PDF Settings page and turn OFF the option Rely on system fonts only. Do not use document fonts. Uh, the fonts that I was initially using (American Standard and Phylliis D) are installed on my system and I have successfully made PDFs many times before with these fonts, but in a desperate time crunch, I converted the fonts to good old Arial and TNR only and yes, I double-checked that, but no matter what I do, turn off this blasted setting (which I never had to mess with before) or turn on this blasted setting for my Adobe PDF printer, I get the same blasted message and FM hangs when I request to distill the document and I can't this dam___d document to distill in preparation for a PDF. Any and all advice is appreciated.

Difficulty with Index Appearance
Good evening fellow Frame Templars: My setup here at JetBlue is simple: WXP, Frame 8.0p277 (unstructured, but not for long) Trying to get my index to shape up a little. Here are some entries and what they look like: 121.135 - Manual Requirements, Manual contents .1-16, 1-76, 1-113, 4-24, 10-3, 10-27, ..10-28, 10-29 and 121.197 - Airplanes - Turbine engine powered - Landing limitations - Alternate airports1- 55, 2-23, 2-43, 2-71 Here's what I WANT them to look like (or something like this): 121.135 - Manual Requirements, Manual contents ..1-16, 1-76, 1-113, 4-24, 10-3, 10-27,10-28, 10-29 and 121.197 - Airplanes - Turbine engine powered - Landing limitations - Alternate airports ...1-55, 2-23, 2-43, 2-71 So my question: Is there a methodology to use the reference pages to break out chapter and page numbers to look the format I am seeking. I work in Queens New York, and unfortunately left a treasure chest of information in my home office in Pennsylvanianot a good thing to do. Assistance and help would be most appreciated.

Just off the cuff, I'd say you had a misplaced tab on your Index Reference page.

Hmm. The lengthy tooltip for that setting says it only needs to be turned off if the document contains embedded fonts that aren't installed on your system. Well, if the fonts _are_ installed on your system, that setting shouldn't even matter. :-} When I recently installed TPS 2, Acrobat 9 couldn't find my custom .joboptions files. Apparently, Adobe pulled one of its favorite new version tricks: they changed the location of those files without a thought to backward compatibility or to having the installation program copy the existing files from the Acro 7 location to the new one. I wonder if something similar/related is at work here. Did this stop working when you upgraded, or sometime later? In Distiller, you might check if the Font Locations list contains the location of those fonts. Also, to eliminate a problem with the specific doc, create a new one that uses those fonts and see if you can PDF that. Also, are you using Save As PDF or printing to Adobe PDF printer? Try the other. Try printing to a file (using Adobe PDF printer). See if a log file is created that shows when it failed and why. If all else fails, try sacrificing a goat. ;-) Richard G.

And it would be good to check that the Adobe PDF printer is set as the system default printer, either in the OS or with a Frame plug-in, so that no other printer fonts can complicate life.

Hypertext Links not Working
Yes, the links appear to be correct in Acrobat using the Link Tool. The link shows as an absolute link and we put relative links in the FM file. The absolute link is correct and changes when I move the file to another folder-still correct for that folder. The links work correctly as well, until the file is moved to our intranet. Although the folder names are different in the intranet, the relative position is the same.
