Acrobat Distiller log

Question

Hi,I have noticed that some recent version of Distiller is not providing log (*.log) file. Previously when I tested the Acrobat Distiller XI I was able to get the log while I drag and drop a PostScript file, in the same folder as PostScript. Now after updating it, I am not getting the log like that.My question is why this change ? Is it intended or a bug ?Is there any way to make this work as older version ? (i.e. getting log in drop folder)Where can we getting the log if not in the same folder. I am using Windows 10 and I am using Acrobat DC Pro.

This is a log file from 1999!

Looks pretty the same...

None of those messages are guaranteed. Most of them come because the PostScript to be written contains instructions to write to the log. The %%[Page: NN]%% lines are just written from the PostScript.

Try distilling this:

%!

No log. Now try this:

%!

(Good afternoon folks) == clippath stroke showpage

Should get log.
