Problems when Saving as PDF in Framemaker 9

New Here ,
Jul 29, 2010 Jul 29, 2010

Hello,

Our department is having a couple of problems when 'Save as PDF' is used to create a PDF in FM9.   We all use WindowsXP.

Problem #1: No PDF created.   A window appears stating that Distiller 5.0.5 or higher is required; we all have Distiller 9.0 installed.  So it doesn't seem to recognize that Distiller 9.0 is available.  NOTE: When PRINTING to PDF there are no issues, it is uses Distiller 9.0 as expected.

Problem #2: PDF is created but chunks of text are missing.

We need to Save as PDF in order for our reviewer comments to automatically be added when importing back into Framemaker.

Can anyone help?

Thank you.

T.

Since you mention that you're on XP, have you installed the PostScript

printer Hotfix from Microsoft?

That would be my starting point for trouble-shooting because it

specifically addresses at least one of your issues.

Thanks Art,

But yes, I already installed the HotFix.

Actually I installed it when I had FM8 and it solved the dropped text problem, but it doesn't seem to help with saving as a PDF in FM9.
