Open Distiller From the
Advanced menu in Acrobat, select
Acrobat Distiller . The Distiller application launches in a window smaller than many Acrobat dialog boxes. The Distiller application window is divided into four sections:
KEY TERM
| Job options The term used in previous versions of Distiller for default settings. These settings files still use the . joboptions suffix. |
Adobe PDF Settings contains a drop-down list of installed settings files, traditionally called Distiller
job options . Helpful text descriptions explain each of the settings in the list.
Progress shows a progress bar to let you know how far along the PostScript-to-PDF conversion process is for the current file. The
Pause and
Cancel Job buttons let you pause or cancel a conversion in progress.
The file list shows information for each file converted since launching Distiller, including the name and size of the original PostScript or EPS file, the conversion time, and the settings used. You can resize each column of information for easier viewing.
Finally, the text field at the bottom of the window shows information about the most recent conversion, including error messages if a problem was encountered .
