A client of ours is a local HS that has been using Pagemaker 7 on PCs solely for paste up purposes. they are almost the last of our clients to not yet move on to electronic means of output.
We sent them instructions on how to make PDFs using PM7 but say that when they go to Print that "Acrobat Distiller" isn't an option in the PPD setting.
By their information the only distiller they have on file is Distiller 8, so I don't know if that version is even compatible.
I've done my research, however, and found that the application disk should have everything they need to make PDFs; PS Printer, Distiller 5.0 - but they don't seem to either have that disk, or have access to it. So I'm not only working blind, I'm working, seemingly, without the original source materials.
To be safe, I'm going to go ahead and assume that they don't have the proper PS driver, either.
So...what can I do?
I'm supposed to be going to help resolve all their PDF issues this weekend, but I feel that we may both be out of luck, and yet I don't want to lose a client because they lack the tools to move to electronic output.
Thanks for all your help, in advance
