Merry Christmas to all.
I downloaded an update to my Acrobat 6 yesterday and it said it failed half way through and now the application won't start up.
I attempted to use my copy of Acrobat 7 to create eps documents from pdf originals but I can't get the color photographs to separate when I print to film. (That's why I wasn't using it up to this point). I looked on the net and went under Tools to Print Production to Output Preview and changed the color to Acrobat 4 CMYK and it gives me the four previews boxes and I can preview the color splits but when I print I still get photo images only on the black neg. I've checked and the original photos are cmyk tiffs and do separate on another machine running Acrobat 6.
Any ideas?
Also, when I fire up 7, it says it has not finished installing an upgrade each time. I am telling it to not upgrade after my aforementioned 6 debacle.
