Nope. Apple doesn't have a particularly good track record with respect to preserving PDF features intact when saving. This is part of the reason Skim uses extended attributes. You should file a bug report with Apple at <http://bugreport.apple.com>, but you probably won't care by the time it gets fixed. > and if there is a way to work around it? Save using one of Skim's non-destructive methods (extended attributes, which is the default, or pdfd bundles). Neither of these will allow you to see your notes in Acrobat or other PDF readers, though. I guess you could also try re-distilling the corrupted PDF with Acrobat or Ghostscript. PStill is another option, but the Mac OS X version is really ancient and will lose PDF bookmarks (IIRC). -- Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
