Probably my first bad experience, but then I have avoided such duplicates
in my higher experience years of FM. ;-)

Re: Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update

2013-09-16 Thread Böðvar Björgvinsson
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
installed it? And failing to install the update seems to have killed the
printer.

I deleted Reader and ran the Acrobat X repair, and voilá! My Adobe PDF
printer is here again!

 *Subject:* Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update

 ** **

 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 have the rights, system being Windows 7.

 ** **

 I thought nothing more of it until now when I tried to print a FM10 file
 to file, there was no option for it. I tried the Distiller on a ps file and
 it worked fine. I tried to save as pdf in FM10 and it started but quit with
 complaints that there was no Adobe ps driver available.

 ** **

 On the Adobe website i only find older versions of ps drivers and all the
 answers I can see are about having to set it up as a new printer in
 Windows, but I do not know where to look for it. I don't find any such
 thing in System32\drivers.

 ** **

 And they warn that the ps drivers on Adobe's website do not work with
 Vista or newer.

 ** **

 Any comments?

Re: Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update

2013-09-16 Thread Robert Lauriston
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.

That's true. But it shouldn't have to be so.
