Runtime Error when exiting Page Set-Up with Adobe PDF Writer

[Guest]

Are you using the writer or the distiller?

If you aren't using distiller, try using that instead. It creates a more accurate PDF.

I am running Vectorworks Spotlight Version 10.5.1 on a Windows XP machine. I am trying to print to AdobePDF Writer (Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Pro).

Every time I try to use page set-up and choose AdobePDF Writer as the printer, I get a Runtime Error.

I was able to set-up the AdobePDF defaults and print without going through Page-Setup but then the Page prints off center and not all images or text prints.

I have read other posts and have set the Adobe PDF Writer to 300dpi.

I am not sure if this is an Adobe or Vectorworks issue.

Katie,

Apparently PDFWriter has been retired and Distiller Printer has been renamed Adobe PDF Printer in Acrobat 6.0. At least thats what I am seeing on the Adobe site.

I am having such trouble printing to PDF with Acrobat 6.0 that I will try a re-install.

Thanks for you suggestion.

All the best,
