1. Re: Acrobat Professional 9.2 Repair Acrobat Installation...
mg_seeley Nov 13, 2009 4:54 AM (in response to concretenz-9RYBra)I saw the same results when printing to PS from within Illustrator and running the file through Distiller. Distiller was deleting the ADPDF9.PPD file on launch. I found the file on the Distiller install DMG and put it back in the PPD folder but Distiller again deleted on launch. I got around this by locking the ADPDF9.PPD file. Distiller now asks for my admin password when it launches so it can "make changes". I enter my password but the file is not deleted. The path to the file on my Mac running 10.6.2 is:
/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ADPDF9.PPD
I can now print to PS from Illustrator using the "Adobe PDF 9.0" PPD and then process the PS file with Distiller without Distiller deleting the PPD file.

concretenz-9RYBra Nov 13, 2009 12:20 PM (in response to mg_seeley)Hi thanks... also not really talking about the pdfprinter for those who answer that one... it is more of the ADPDF9.PPD. I too locked it though got the repeated password thing...
so I simply took ADPDF9.PPD out of the 'Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj'
and went one level up and put the ADPDF9.PPD into 'Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources' no need to lock and it is not deleted. So I can now print to file, (which I print to a watched distiller folder)....
THOUGH... I will be using export to pdf more, just at present distiller gives me a idiot proof pdf
