Bjerkewm Posted June 7, 2000 Share Posted June 7, 2000 What is the path to exporting an image file which can be processed by Acrobat into an at scale printable document. I note that exporting to Tiff files apparently exports only the active layer. Quote Link to comment
The Cantor Posted June 8, 2000 Share Posted June 8, 2000 On a mac, go to chooser and select Acrobat PDF Writer. Do your normal page setup and instead of printing hardcopy, you will be generating a pdf file. Quote Link to comment
Bjerkewm Posted June 8, 2000 Author Share Posted June 8, 2000 I do not have Acrobat PDF Printer. I have tried sending Tiff file to Adobe website for translation, without success, to see if Acrobat works, before buying it. Do you know, is PDF Printer only available with Acrobat?

The Cantor Posted June 8, 2000 Share Posted June 8, 2000 I am not sure if anyone else offers PDF Writer. I do know that I have had excellent success writing files direct from my VW files. I am on a G4/350. Quote Link to comment
benghiat Posted June 10, 2000 Share Posted June 10, 2000 I use Adobe Illustrator 8 to convert files to PDF. In VW, I print to a virtual printer, saving the file as a postscript, including all fonts. Illustrator can open the PS file and save as PDF. This may work for the online PDF maker as well. I do plan on purchasing Acrobat someday to make this process easier, but Illustrator works great for now. Quote Link to comment
Geoff Briggs Posted June 16, 2000 Share Posted June 16, 2000 There is a neat piece of shareware called Print to PDF by James W Walker which works via the Chooser and only costs 10 or 20 bucks. Works pretty well.<www.jwwalker.com> Good luck. Geoff Briggs Quote Link to comment
