Re: Color graphics in PDFs using FM 6.0 come out gray

[Art Campbell]

A couple questions:

How are you generating the PDFs? Hopefully printing to the Acrobat
logical printer...

Because you're specifying printer settings in Frame, have you gone
into the printer properties and verified that you do NOT have print
colors as greyscale / black activated?

And because you didn't provide much in the way of specs -- are your
Frame and Acrobat installs fully patched? If you're running XP, have
you installed the Microsoft Hotfix for all PostScript printers? I
don't have the URL in front of me, but you should be able to google it
pretty easily.

 Hello all,

 I have both FM 8.0 and FM 6.0 installed on my computer.



 When I work with files that require FM 6.0 and  I generate a PDF, my color
 graphics come out gray.

 When I work with files that require FM 8.0 and  I generate a PDF, my color
 graphics come out fine, as they should.





 I have Distiller 9.0.   I have tried to work with a Distiller file, but I am
 unable to because my Generate Acrobat Data check box is grayed out.  How do
 I activate it and has anyone run into this problem before.



 I thank you in advance for your help.  This list has always come thru for
 me.

When I work with files that require FM 6.0 and  I generate a PDF, my color
graphics come out gray.


Look in the Adobe PDF printer properties on the Advanced tab. You probably 
have the driver set to something besides Adobe PDF Converter. Choosing 
another driver will limit you to the features in that driver. For example, a 
driver for a black and white printer will not produce color no matter what 
you do.

How are you generating the PDFs? Hopefully printing to the Acrobat
logical printer...

Because you're specifying printer settings in Frame, have you gone
into the printer properties and verified that you do NOT have "print
colors as greyscale / black" activated?

And because you didn't provide much in the way of specs -- are your
Frame and Acrobat installs fully patched? If you're running XP, have
you installed the Microsoft Hotfix for all PostScript printers? I
don't have the URL in front of me, but you should be able to google it
