In case Dov Isaacs isn't online today to promptly chastise you, permit
me. ;-)
ROFLMAO!
You are welcome. And don't you tell me you don't enjoy it! ;-)
Multiple/mixed Acrobat installations are a very, very bad idea. Dov has
warned countless times that it can lead to unpredictable and unstable
behavior. When you installed FM, you should not have installed Distiller
7 (assuming you'd prefer the full Acrobat 6 to just Distiller 7).
And it has all been said many times before, _but_ this has usually not
been a problem when you first install the newer version of Distiller
and then the older one.
Now, you need to completely uninstall both Acrobat 6 and Distiller 7.
After that's done, either reinstall one, but not the other, or wait
until you get Acrobat 8, and then install it.
Do *not* install Acrobat 8 without removing Acrobat 6 and Distiller 7
first.
And this is exactly what I am going to do. :-)
I believe the .joboptions files have moved around some in recent
releases, but I don't recall the details. Google techwr-l.com for
"joboptions locations" or something like that. I seem to recall having
to copy my old ones somewhere after moving to Acro 7.
HTH!
