    Illustrator crashes when distilling PDF

    Really basic vector. Nothing was imported. I type the name of the business and created outlines with my fonts. Everything is simple vector. LTR size layout, Show rulers, I 'selected all unused' swatches and deleted them. Everything is on the same layer. Nothing is hidden/locked. There are no...

    Illustrator crashes when distilling PDF

    Thanks for the reply. No need to apologize for ANYTHING bro. Being a good daddy is priority #1. It's a logo that I'm creating for a client, so it's all vector. I've repaire permissions too.

    QuarkXPress or InDesign?

    I think it's necessary to be proficient in both apps. Different printers utilize different apps., and sometimes (in the case of newspaper ads for clients escpecially), it's best to provide the proprietary native file so that the newsprinters can make edits for various runs and not bother you for...

    Illustrator crashes when distilling PDF

    I am trying to save an eps file as an Illustrator PDF so that I may send it to a client. Three times now it has crashed the app. right after asking for the PDF settings. I tried to save the EPS to AI first and then PDF, but it crashed upon saving to a different format there too. Any ideas? I'm...

    Delete user acct.

    My colleague just got a Mac Pro G5 and transfered all her files from her old G4, which was a hand-me-down machine. System Preferences names her as the Admin., but says her 'short nickname' is "fattychick" (for example). I looked around in Keychain Access, but the previous user does not show...

    Duplicate fonts in FontExplorerX

    All of my secondary fonts are stored in my user font folder. No server fonts. I repair permissions a few times a week. Arial is not in red. None of my fonts are. Should I just trash any fonts that are in red in ever I come across one? I don't have any utilities like that. Versiontracker I guess?

    Duplicate fonts in FontExplorerX

    Nice!! Thanks a nuch Nato. I think this will make it a lot easier. It should've occurred to me to not group in families but rather individually to easier select and deselect particular conflicting fonts. What do you suggest for determining which fonts are corrupt?

    Duplicate fonts in FontExplorerX

    Well...I still have the issue with not being able to just tell the app to deactivate all duplicate fonts' non-postscript versions. It's not really a malfunction–I was just trying to streamline my process. I'm thinking that it can't be done any easier. Thanks for the tips though. I posted...

    Duplicate fonts in FontExplorerX

    Okay Nato, I didn't have the auto-activation on for the Microsoft apps, nor the "Automatically activate..." thing. I already had the cutsomized view set to show fonts by format, plus I had made smart sets to separate them. I guess I'll have to manually deactivate non-ps fonts when the problem...

    Trifold brochure specs

    creating a trifold brochure in Quark. I remember from schooling that 1 of the 3 panels was always a little wider than the others to make up for the folds, but I don't remember what size. Anyone know where to set up my columns?

    Disk Utility says HD is failing

    WOW!! The Dept. head just decided to buy a MacPro G5 for her. Guess it's about time to accidentally spill some coffee on my dinosaur. :) Just kidding. I would like to still see if I can rectify this issue, but I think the dept. has already removed it from her desk and the new one comes in today...
