I keep getting an error when trying to print my InDesign document as a booklet. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the InDesign and Adobe Acrobat apps and still no luck. I also receive the following error:

%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[Page: 1]%%
%%[Page: 2]%%
%%[Page: 3]%%
%%[ Error: ioerror; OffendingCommand: readstring ]%%

I got this. Mac Mini, Sonoma, InDesign 18.4, ie pretty well the latest greatest. Typical glitch - you would think that by now they would have eliminated this sort of trivial inconvenience. Fortunately it was a simple document. I copied all the components roughly onto another page - output fine. I created a new document and pasted everything in place - outputs fine. NOT a font problem, NOT an Excel tables problem. Just rubbish software. First document was a Save As from one which previously output fine but has now acquired the same bug. Unimpressed.
