    Illustrator PDF saving as an InDesign PDF

    GArshamA Community Member

      Strange... I have CS5.  Just recently, when I try to save an AI document as a PDF, it looks like everything works correctly, but the resulting icon on my desktop shows ID (pdf).  When I click on it, it says InDesign can not open the document because a plugin is missing or it is open (which it is not).  I can go back into Illustrator and open it, and I can open it through Acrobat, but saving again, through either of these programs still gives me a default of an InDesign PDF which in turn will not open by just clicking on it.

       

      Any thoughts as to what may be causing this?
