Reply To: PDF export problems with CS5

Thanks for the tip David.

I've already tried the 'usual' things like throwing out the Application preferences and rebuilding them, but this didn't seem to work. I haven't done too much with the presets except for creating a new 'Test' preset which didn't help. I will try different flattening options next (PDF version etc).

Some of the circumstantial evidence from the Adobe forum suggest that it may be something to do with documents that were created with or contain elements from earlier versions of ID. I'm not so sure… as it has happened to me with a brand new document as well.

Also David, I'm curious about your workflow. Maybe I just don't get it… but how advantageous is it to be able to keep working on a document while you export it? I normally output a PDF as a proof of some kind or as a press-ready file, either way it represents a snapshot in time. If you are working on the document while exporting, surely there's a possibility of going out of sync with your versions? I suspect it's just me being unwilling to embrace the new!
