Re: OT: Acrobat 8 freezes Frame after motherboard rebuild
Thanks Stuart, Sorry for the delay, but it turned out to be a bit of a trial. There was no FILE: port, but even after creating one, it still didn't work. Dov will be miffed, but I ended up succumbing to Uninstall-itus -- which did work, after eons of uninstall, install, register, re-activate -- and final success. Thanks again. jjj Stuart Rogers wrote: Make sure the printer port FILE: still exists. If not, add it. Start Settings Printers Faxes Adobe PDF properties Ports tab Note the port currently selected.

RE: OT: Acrobat 8 freezes Frame after motherboard rebuild
I experienced a similar situation w/A8. Many uninstalls later, my reinstall took. The only clue I have regarding what fixed what is that somewhere along the line I ran a registry clean-up utility to discard pointless keys. Subsequently, but not necessarily related, my reinstall finally worked...Kelly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Pitt Sent: 2008-04-11 07:24 To: Stuart Rogers Cc: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Re: OT: Acrobat 8 freezes Frame after motherboard rebuild Thanks Stuart, Sorry for the delay, but it turned out to be a bit of a trial.

OT: Acrobat 8 freezes Frame after motherboard rebuild
After my motherboard went feral, I had to rebuild with a new motherboard, cpu, video card, etc. XP Pro had to be coerced into working again, but it was OK. But my Acrobat Pro 8 installation now refuses to make PDFs using either FM 8 or 7.1 with either Save As or print to PostScript. After a short time, Frame stops responding, the top menu bar disappears, and it has to be killed. I've Repaired, Uninstalled > Repaired, Deactivated and Activated, and muttered various incantations. Nothing seems to work. Strangely, both Word and Excel do produce PDFs. Any clues? jjj -- _ John Pitt, technical writer 47 Gottenham St Glebe NSW 2037 Ph: 02 9692 8096 Mob: 0438 92 8096 john at pitt.net.au www.pitt.net.au
