I'd suspect a corrupt graphic. Try making a copy of the file, deleting out all the graphics, see if it will PDF. If so, add back in the first half the graphics, see if the file will now PDF. If so, add half the remaining graphics, text again. If not, remove half of what you'd added and test

The problem is not with setting the Adobe PDF as printer instance. The problem occurs when this is selected and when another printer instance is selected. Thanks, Karen At 12:29 PM -0700 6/4/14, David Spreadbury wrote: You could also try and locate a copy of the SetPrint plugin, currently

Matt, RGB-CMYK was the culprit! I just tested with CMYK checked in the PDF settings, and the file rendered correctly. I switched that back to RGB and it failed. Thank you! --Karen At 3:22 PM -0700 6/4/14, Matt Sullivan wrote: Here's what I ran into recentlyŠhope it helps!

Solved: top-bound book

Thanks, everyone. I agree that this should be done by the printer and I will contact him. It is easy enough for me to rotate the even-numbered pages in the PDF (thanks, Robert!) , which will nicely solve that problem if he doesn't want to do it himself. Rotating in the PDF will prevent me from
