What version of InDesign? What operating system? What are your export settings? Is it one file or all files?

Try PDF/X-4. If that fails, too, please answer the question about whether it's this file or all files.

That may be the easiest work around. Could be just about anything from a bad image, corrupt font…

You could try the IDML export route and see if that fixes it.

Question. Is the file referenced in the alert window "16034 Otterpool…" the name of the file that you're trying to create? Or could that be a file that is placed in the InDesign document you're trying to export? I'm wondering if you might have a corrupt placed file in your document. If that is a placed file, I'd try deleting it from the ID document and re-exporting. If it works, you've found your problem.

Why are you using Distiller and Postscript to create PDFs? Use File>Export>Adobe PDF (Print) instead.

Hm. Seems that you try to distill no PostScript or EPS file.

Can you tell what kind of file you run Distiller at?

%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%  indicates you are using the print dialog to save a .PS (postscript) file, and that's the cause of your problem.

Use File>Export>Adobe PDF (Print) and let us know if you still get an error. You should be exporting via this dialog:

The Version 4 ICC Profiles were converted... alert usually doesn't stop the PDF from exporting, but it might be the problem.

What are the document profile assignments?

Also, it looks like you might be placing complex PDF links? The version 4 profile could be buried in one of those.

I don't think that's surprising, all JPEG does is rasterize the pages.

Again, what profiles are assigned? I would start by addressing the Version 4 profile error, and see if that is stopping the export.
