Hi all,
A strange thing happened this morning.
I have a solution which involves Filemaker printing off a page as PDF, said
page is opened in Acro Exchange and a larger pre-compiled PDF is inserted at
the end of the Filemaker page.
On Thursday last week, I processed 24 files as a Filemaker driven loop with
no problem. On Friday, processing a batch of 91 documents led to several
snarl ups as Applescript was trying to rename the file before it had
appeared on the desktop.
So, today, using 4 docs, I ran my latest implementation using PrintToPDF.
The first 3 docs went thru fine but the fourth gets Acrobat to sent me a
'not enough memory' message.
The 4th doc is 1.0Mb in size. But, I was handling 2.5Mb docs on Thursday and
Friday. I've tried upping Acrobat's memory to 32Mb but I still get the same
error.
I've tried running the samller files again and they're still OK. I tried a
bloater (2.5Mb) and got the 'memory' error.
Any ideas?
