The Distiller cannot have disappeared or else Save As PDF would
not work, because that uses Distiller (the application). Distiller 7.0
should be right there in your Windows Programs menu.
Or are you talking about the printer instance named "Acrobat Distiller"?

Hi everyone
Novell are pushing linux, and have a survey up to find out which Windows apps
people really want on it. I thought some people might be interested in adding
FM to the list - especially those who've been using it on a MAC and don't want
to convert to Windoze.

Perhaps our roles are o
When you save as PDF there's a dialog with page size definitions in
there. Make sure they're set to what you want the output to be. By
default they inherit from the document. Once changed, the settings are

I think I'd start by uninstalling 5, if it's still there, and 7. And
then reinstalling to get a clean install. Something isn't right if

My report volume is landscape. The cover and title page are rotated pages.
Last year, I changed the page size from 7.5 by 9 to 8.5 by 11. In Acrobat
5, the pdf generated fine (I used the distiller) and all the pages were 8.5
by 11. This year, I upgraded to Acrobat 7. I use the Save As feature
This is correct -- you can only alert based on nesting depth. I suspect
one could write an FDK client to actually restrict the legal nesting
depth as you describe. One of the more obscure XML schema languages
(Schematron) already provides this capability outside FrameMaker.

DITA was designed by IBM for data interchange, so was never really
intended as a data authoring structure. This can be confi

Unfortunately, there's no way to do this with an XML DTD. However, it's
not hard to determine an element's nesting level when processing XML
with XSLT or even a FrameMaker EDD. For example, a FrameMaker EDD might
