Check your distiller settings for that Joboption and turn off PDF/A-1b
in the Standards area.

Subject: PDF Creation Errors


All,

 

   I am using Win XP SP2 and running Acrobat Pro 8 with Distiller 8.1.2.

 

   I tried to print a FrameMaker book from Frame to PDF with Generate
Acrobat Data selected. This has worked in the past, but it didn't work
this time. I get an error that says, among other things, the following:

 

This document does not pass PDF/A-1b:2005 compliance checks.

 

   So, I unchecked Generate Acrobat data and I didn't get the error and
it distilled to the PS file just fine (seemingly), but when I clicked
that file to create PDF, I got a file that had all the book files
repeated. I thought it might be an error caused by a problem in the file
(and Distiller reported there were 

 

   Warnings: The total found in this document was 0.

   Violations: The total found in this document was 524.

 

   in the file.) I tried to distill another book file that worked
previously, but got the same sort of errors. Anyone have any idea what's
happening and, better yet, how to fix this? I tried a search on the
error message and found a series of four messages on the Adobe Acrobat
user's forum with the same error message and the "solution" seemed to be
a removal and re-installation of Quark and a "downgrade" from CS3 to
CS2, after which the person let all of the pop-ups about updates run
their course. This seemed to have fixed that issue, but brought up other
issues, instead. I was able to print to a PDF from Word, if that helps
any.

 

Thanks much in advance!
