Thanks in advance,

lrosenth Jul 9, 2010 9:13 AM (in response to joeln3)Should work just fine with PS and EPS. What error(s) are you getting back from your call?

lrosenth Jul 9, 2010 9:14 AM (in response to joeln3)Distiller is always installed with Acrobat - but you'll have more API control with the AVConversion APIs.

joeln3 Jul 11, 2010 11:38 PM (in response to lrosenth)Hello Leonard,
Actually the result is an Acrobat crash. Here is the crash message :

Additional Information 3: fcc8
Additional Information 4: 5b51d2afad257b7effa403c01ee041e9I use the AVConversionConvertToPDF(kAVConversionNoFlags, asPath, ASGetDefaultFileSys(), pdDoc, oAVStatusMonitorProc) method to convert the eps file to pdf and it crashes. Using a bmp it works fine.
Do you have an idea why it doesn't work?
Thanks in advance,
Joe
Edit : I also tried using the AVConversionConvertToPdfWithHandler() method with the AVConversionToPdfHandler = "com.adobe.acrobat.ps" and it doesn't work. I use the *ps handler because I read that I have to use it for EPS. But I don't remember where I read it...

lrosenth Jul 12, 2010 4:30 AM (in response to joeln3)Offhand, no - sounds like a definitely bug. I'd report it as such.

9. Re: AVConversionConvertToPDF and EPS file format
joeln3 Jul 13, 2010 1:42 AM (in response to lrosenth)Actually the conversion works fine with another plug-in so I don't know why it crashes in my current application...
I use the SDK 8.2.
For information this was an earlier discussion concerning the AVConversion http://forums.adobe.com/message/2126967#2126967
that's where I read that I had to use the *ps conversion for eps
