Hey there! I do graphic design/print for a small company and just upgraded to Leopard and CS3. I'm the only designer here, so I have no one to bounce ideas and problems off of. I was just wondering if anyone else has been having the PDF problems I have after upgrading.
I usually use Adobe Acrobat Distiller to create PDFs. I have not had any troubles with it in the past. Since the upgrade, strange things happen to illustrator files. Things drop out, the shapes change...just strange. Here's what makes it even more strange! The thumbnails are correct! When opened in viewer or Illustrator things just seem to be missing. I also just had a strange one come across my desk out of Illustrator. I believe a high resolution pdf was saved out of Illustrator. When opened in viewer, everything is fine, when opened back up in Illustrator I had a gradient background disappear, the box containing the gradient was gone as well. I'm baffled. Maybe there are settings or something in both distiller and in Illustrator for saving PDFs that I'm missing. Let me know if anyone has any thoughts on this. Thanks!
