FM 12: How do I create a .ps file of a book? (errors prevent PDF generation)

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

You tried Print to AdobePDF?

[CharlesAASKI]

That is correct. I get three errors preventing the PDF from generating

Error: undefined result; OffendingCommand: div

Flushing:rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored

Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced.

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

Is this happening to everything you try? Or just with specific docs?

[CharlesAASKI]

A specific book (that I was able to generate prior to making numerous changes).

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

I’d spend my time finding the offending doc – doing a Print and selecting the “print to file” option to generate the .ps file probably still won’t get you any further to creating a PDF

[Arnis Gubins]

There's probably a graphic on one of your pages that is causing a postscript division error (i.e. divide by zero?) See also: PostScript error offending command div

As Jeff suggests, track down the errant graphic to see what's wrong. If you print to file, you should get an idea of roughly where in the docs the error occurs by watching the print thermometer display.

Thank you. All set
