    Weird Distiller/ Watched folder issue

    kevin.cecil Community Member

      I have encountered an issue in Acrobat Distiller that has me puzzled.

       

      If I drop a .ps file directly into Distiller, it distills and makes a good PDF file. If I put that same file in my watched folder, it fails every time with the following error:

       

      Error in /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings/PDFX4 2008.joboptions:
      /CheckCompliance out of range

       

      I am not using PDFX4 as my settings file–I am using one of the defaults form Adobe: High Quality Print.

       

      I can literally take the file that fails from the out folder after failing and drop it in the Distiller window and it distills perfectly. The watched folder is on the Desktop of an Intel iMac, not on a network. Both the OS and all Adobe Creative Suite apps are running all of the latest updates.

       

      MacOS X 10.5.8

      Acrobat Distiller 9.2.0

       

      The Mac has been restarted, prefs trashed, the watched folder recreated, etc…

       

      Any ideas?
