Can no longer create .ps that does not error in Distiller

2013-12-11 Thread Steve Rickaby
If there is anyone out there who is still using FrameMaker 7.0p577 on Mac in Classic, maybe they can help me with this problem, as I've wasted hours on it and I'm a bit desperate. For historical reasons, I'm still on this setup. I reported earlier that the AdobePS printer driver, which I have

Isolating the graphics one by one would be approach. I have a hunch it'll be a .PDF or .EPS; maybe conflicting versions of PostScript or something obscure like that. One important item you left out of your description is whether you're using the distiller head that's installed by the FM

OT--PDF Read Out Loud problem

2013-12-11 Thread Carol J. Elkins
After I emailed this yesterday, I tested the PDF on my laptop (also running Acrobat 11 Pro on Windows 7), and the Read Out Loud function works fine. So the problem must be with the Acrobat installation on my desktop CPU. I've run the Repair feature to no avail. It isn't worth uninstalling and

My grateful thanks to Art and Syed for much help and moral support. Syed - you were right, I should have tried MIF-washing the problem chapter first. After doing so, I got a .ps file that Distiller could distill, but with a Ps error, and recovery, producing a PDF with the message 'PostScript

I know I'm using up all my tokens here, but... FrameMaker 7 - .ps - Distiller 6 - PDF. Book contains many JPEGs. Book is to be printed in grayscale, so needs to have no information in C, M and Y channels. JPEGs converted to 256-bit grayscale, using the same workflow as I've used successfully

Carol, Files created using Distiller create flat files, with no interactivity. They may be repaired, using tedious methods in Acrobat. It is much better to create accessible publications using techniques that take into consideration the entire design and workflow to minimize repairs. True
