Distiller Fails to Generate PDF

I'm using the Distiller Active-X control from within another application. I need to know if a PDF was successfully generated. Unfortunately, the return value from the control returns a 'success' value even if the PostScript file failed and a PDF wasn't generated. It appears that the return value is really saying "I was able to start the process" and not "I was unable to complete the process". Does anyone know of a reliable way to detect that the PDF was successfully generated?

Thanks,

Steve
