Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update

2013-09-16 Thread Böðvar Björgvinsson
A few days ago i accepted (once again!) Adobe's request for update on Adobe Acrobat (or Reader) — security reasons, they said. And, as usual, while downloading the message was that I could keep on with my work. However, the installer gave up when trying to install the update and told me it didn't

Thanks for the suggestions. They helped me take the right decision. :-) I did not have Reader installed earlier, but after having sent the computer to a shop (due to USB problems and other anomalities) some changes seem to have been made that triggered automatic update of Reader. Perhaps they

I'm using something like your suggested workflow. The downside of it is that pasting into the pre-formatted frame doesn't work well. Even if the scratch icon bitmap is selected, pasting doesn't replace it. Selecting the frame and pasting results in the bitmap appearing in the centre of the

Huh, pasting over a selected bitmap used to stay in place. Another bad change to the UI. The align commands might be faster and more precise than dragging. As a user I don't find it much work to find a button by its tooltip. Usually the icon image gives some clue. Normally I document the most

Download the Acrobat update, right-click the file, and select Run As Administrator. If FrameMaker still won't save to PDF, reinstall FrameMaker. If it still won't save as PDF, re-run the Acrobat update as admin. On Mon, Sep 16, 2013 at 10:13 AM, Böðvar Björgvinsson bod...@gmail.com wrote: A

The same thing happened to me about a week ago. I limped along using print to .ps. I think what finally fixed it was a Adobe Update session. Trigger an update for all your Adobe programs and see if that doesn't fix it. If you can't, have your administrator do it. Craig From:

Extracting the icons from the plug-in source should not be difficult, they're usually all in one directory. Assuming the icons are all the same size, in a separate .fm file create one frame with one scratch icon bitmap with all the settings as you want them. Copy and paste that into your main

Hi all, I crossed my fingers that FM8 and Win8 would play together reasonably nicely. It's almost fine except for the above-referenced action: click-and-drag to highlight. It doesn't always happen, but when it does, FM freezes irreparably. I have to force it closed, and the autosave may or may
