    I've been trying to export a PDF from an entire book. Unfortunately, everytime it gets to the last file, which is about page 180, the process stops and no PDF is generated. Sometimes InDesign just quits out. The book is a total of 200 pages and all links are present. My first thought is that it might be a funky file within that page range but all images check out just fine. I can print & generate a PDF of every section within the book as individual sections. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

    I've had this happen before, and it can be totally maddening.

    Some of the Top 10 Troubleshooting tips from Anne-Marie may be worth applying to the troublesome document: https://www.lynda.com/home/Disp…..lpk2=47762

    Additionally, I'd try removing the troublemaker from the book and exporting the book without it — just to make sure that specific doc IS the troublemaker.

    I have occasionally found–and this blows my mind and makes no sense–that sometimes a file will export fine by itself but not as part of a Book when the file contains elements that span both pages on a spread. It's a super long shot, but you may want to check for that.
