Hi,

I keep getting this erro message after every Description or Keyword entry. I'm adding PDF fiels from a remote server. I've re-started 3x, reset all of teh setting, purged cache, etc. I have permission to read/write from server. Only way I can get the data to stick is to open one of teh AI fiels & save a new PDF to my desktop, then add it to Bridge, add data, quit, relaunch & the data is saved. There's around 150-200 files that I would hate to go through saving out PDF's on all over again. Most of the PDF'a are less than 1MB.

Any help appreciated.

Not surprising, Adobe doesn't support working directly off a server because it is unreliable and hard to troubleshoot. Copy the files to your local machine, or talk to your IT folks about why its not working.

Lumigraphics, thnanks for the quick reply. The plan was for this Library to be shared, is it possible to still share it if the files are on my local drive?

You can share things off a server, just be advised that best practice is to copy files to the local machine before working on them in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc.
