Re: .tps files too big?
Hi Craig, I think that the problem is with the printer spooler. I am using Framememaker 10. When distilling large books, the spooler often crashes. That usually happens when I manually initiate the distilling process (File--Save as PDF). The spooler almost never crashes on me when I run a script that updates the book and generates a PDF.

RE: .tps files too big?
Wow! 2.8 Giga bytes? That is a very large single file indeed. I am not surprised that FrameMaker chokes. If you are truly creating that large a .tps file, then doing the creation of the PDF in multiple pieces and combing the resulting files in Acrobat may be the only way to proceed. Curiosity: what is the resulting size of the final PDF file if you combine the multiple distilled outputs?

RE: .tps files too big?
Wow, yes, huge! If you are working over a network, you might be running into a timeout problem. If that's the case, try copying the source files to your local machine and creating the PDF there. -- garyZ From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Syed Zaeem Hosain (syed.hos...@aeris.net) Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2014 6:37 PM To: Craig Ede; framers Subject: RE: .tps files too big?
