Re: Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update
Probably my first bad experience, but then I have avoided such duplicates in my higher experience years of FM. ;-) Brgds, Bodvar On Mon, Sep 16, 2013 at 8:32 PM, Robert Lauriston rob...@lauriston.comwrote: The experts say it's a bad idea to have Acrobat Reader and Acrobat on the same system.

Re: Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update
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!

Re: Adobe PS driver vanished after Adobe failed Acrobat update
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 few days ago i accepted (once again!)

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.

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