Lori Interesting dialectic this...I too just walked into the middle of this movie...more like the credits rolling... When the infra referenced "Job Option" file is installed does it essentially upgrade A5.x/ ID2 to the capacity to A6 Distiller to include ebook? If so, I would most certainly be interested in receiving a copy as well, along with installation notes, until I can get the upgrade to A6 Pro/IDCS which I intend to do very soon. This kind of personal and corporate largesse can only reap goodwill and continued loyalty from those of us who have spent literally thousands of $,$$$ with Adobe over the years... Thanks. mak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lori DeFurio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 7:07 AM Subject: RE: [PDF] eBook files for OverDrive's Content Reserve > > The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com > __________________________________________________________________ > > Didn't catch the beginning of this thread however I can answer some of it: > > - Overdrive's content reserve is using Adobe Content Server > > - eBook is one of the 6 Job Options available in Acrobat Distiller 6.0. > Acrobat 5 (and ID2) did not include this Job Option, however, I can send you > the job option file if you would like. > > > > I believe the 'drone' is telling you to use the 'eBook' settings.
