Saving book as PDF

Hello all,

Currently, I am preparing a book for translation and am trying to save it as a pdf. This all works fine, but the created document is secured even though the settings for adobe pdf (printer) are set to no security.

How can I get FM (9) to create a pdf file without security?

Thanks,

Pieter

    Unchecking the save to file option and saving to another location seems to have solved the problem

    Thanks for the info

    Hi Pieter

    In Acrobat Distiller, choose Settings > Security and check the security

    options there.

    Met vriendelijke groet

    What happens when you print to the Adobe PDF printer instance instead of using Save As?

    I get a .ps file which gives an error stating that it is not accessible. I checked print as pdf and do not print as .ps file I will try this again to be sure but figured that Frame must provide an option to disable the secured pdf and allow an unsecured pdf to be created.

    regards

    When you print to the Adobe printer, on the FM Print dialog box, make sure that Print To File is NOT checked -- that's what's causing it to generate a .PS file instead of a PDF.
