Question Whenever I try to save a file out of Illustrator 10 as an Illustrator 10 file, I receive the following message, "Acrobat PDF file format is having difficulties. Illustrator had a problem." However it will save the file.
But when I try to save the file as a PDF, it gives the same error message, but does NOT save the file as a PDF. If I convert all the type to outlines, it will NOT give me this message and will save the PDF. Could you tell me why I am receiving this message and how to correct it? Thanks.
Answer Hi Kristen,
I haven't run into this problem so I'm not sure what to tell you. It seems to point to a font problem though. Try opening a new file and use a different font then try saving that as a PDF. Some fonts have been known to cause errors when outputing or in your case saving as a PDF.
Sorry I couldn't help more.
