Hi Bertrand, You have to print to Postscript files and then use a watched folder to convert all in one go to PDF via Acrobat. Best regards Winfried Am 07.09.2022 11:52 schrieb "Bertrand Meyer (SIT)" <[email protected]>:
Thanks. I don’t print to Postscript, why should I? I want PDF files. I used to print Postscript files (back in the days when everyone was wearing a tie to work), then “distill” them to PDF (sounds like deliciously nostalgic terminology)… Should I still do that?

Could it be that you had not activated to print to a Postscript file?

I tried it again now but I have to wait for each chapter to print and display in Acrobat, then click OK to approve the file name for the next chapter (even though it's just <chaptername>.pdf in the chosen directory). This is utterly crazy! For a small book it took me a good 10 minutes of just waiting and clicking, but my next book is 40+ chapters! There are better things to do with one's life than waiting for the computer to condescend to letting you click predictable modal dialogs. There must be a "do this for me and tell me when you are done" option (as I think there was in older versions) but I didn't find it. Any help?
