Have a new computer with Windows Vista 64 Bit OS. From a Page Maker or Word doc., I can not print to file (PDF). Get a message that first says "Will not launch acrobat distiller". Then I get a message immediately after that says, "Can not send to post script distiller". I have tried to re-install Distiller 5.0 for no help and I have also tried to download latest post script drivers from Adobe web site but they will not install. My Adobe program is pretty old (Photoshop 6 and Page Maker 7) but everything worked fine on other older computer with XP. I can not find any older free download versions of Acrobat and I DO NOT WANT TO BUY ACROBAT 9 LIKE SOME SUGGEST DOING. I am looked to solve problem with out cost.

RE: PM7.01 crashs when exporting to Adobe PDF IC04 (TechnicalUser)(OP)22 May 04 13:20Hi BigJohnD,Thanks for the input, I tried that up date 7.01a and when I tried to export to Adobe PDF PDF options screen came up Distiller settings Job Name Screen screen Printer Style Acrobat then I pressed EXPORT then the Export PFD as screen came up I typed an Eight char prefix followed by .PDFthen Saving PS output failed and could'nt print to PS filePPPLLEEAASSEE help me thanks IC04 RE: PM7.01 crashs when exporting to Adobe PDF IC04 (TechnicalUser)(OP)22 May 04 13:25hi BigJohnD, I forgot to tell you that initially I had 16 pages of text and graphics but I reduced it to one(1) page and it still will not save to a PS file. Oh, yes prior to reducing the number of pages it would just crash. Could there be something wrong with my copy? of pagemakerregardsIC04 RE: PM7.01 crashs when exporting to Adobe PDF BionicJohn (TechnicalUser)22 May 04 13:45Hi, IC04,Seems to me you now need to examine your document.Have you followed everything listed below?Your compose to printer is "Acrobat Distiller" ( or a variation);
You are only using *.PSD, *.TIF or *.EPS graphic formats - there are no metafiles, *JPG or *.GIF;
You have not used Insert Object or Paste Special (e.g. WordArt, Excel Chart);
You have used not Copy and Paste to import a graphic into PM: you have used only File -> Place;
Your PM file or linked graphics are all on a local drive(i.e. not on a file server nor on removable media (e.g. CD-ROM)).
Your "Acrobat" Style is correct (if in doubt, delete it - PM will recreate it)
You have not used a character in your path/filename which Distiller objects to, for instance a space or comma. The failsafe route is the old DOS 8.3 format - e.g. C:\pdfs\myfile.pdf.
Finally, have your tried the two stage process - create the PS file, and then load up Distiller to convert it to a PDF?

RE: PM7.01 crashs when exporting to Adobe PDF Nohjekim (TechnicalUser)30 May 04 13:03I would suggest that if you don't have time to mess with this right now that you try John's last suggestion.Instead of using "Export", use "Print" and select Acrobat distiller as the printer.This will create a .ps file.Next use Distiller to convert the .ps files to a PDF.I have had this work when I was having a variety of problems with PDFs from PageMaker.Mike googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1406030581151-2'); ); Red Flag This PostPlease let us know here why this post is inappropriate.
