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

2007-10-05 Thread Joel
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. They are trumpeting this
product (and I like it) but if it consistently crashes when

I meant to say that if it consistently crashes when attempting to generate a
PDF, what good is it?

 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.
