Re: Frame 8 - Acrobat 8 crash
Ah. I haven't the means of digging into each tool to find the breaking point. I just know that FM8 + Acrobat 8.1 = burp. ;-) Thanks Dov!

Re: Frame 8 - Acrobat 8 crash
A little more testing and here is where I am at: [1] Once or twice I was able to save a non XML document as a PDF if I un-checked Generate Tagged PDF. Now that isn't working again. [2] I have another document authored using elements/XML, and I cannot save it as a PDF with Generate Tagged PDF checked OR un-checked. I just can't do it! [3] I also can't send the XML file to the Adobe Printer - it errors out. [4] I also tired creating a PostScript file - that works. Then I attempt to convert the PS to PDF and get: %%[ Error: syntaxerror; OffendingCommand: ) ]%% %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %% FYI, I did not install the PDF Creation add on when I installed. I'm wondering if I need to somehow synch up the settings for Frame-Distiller-Acrobat? Maybe something is conflicting in the settings somewhere? I don't want to install the PDF Creation thing because it rips Acrobat Pro out of my machine. This situation is really frustrating and I'm thinking that Adobe better come up with a fix soon.

Re: Frame 8 - Acrobat 8 crash
I meant to say that if it consistently crashes when attempting to generate a PDF, what good is it?

Re: Frame 8 - Acrobat 8 crash
Have you applied the Acrobat 8.1 upgrade / patch? In my experience and in the experience of several writers I work with, this is the very culprit. Revert back to Acrobat 8.0. -- Bill Swallow HATT List Owner WWP-Users List Owner Senior Member STC, TechValley Chapter STC Single-Sourcing SIG Manager http://techcommdood.blogspot.com ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
