Frame 8 trial woes

Will it crash if you produce the PDF's with 1 save,as separate files, then?
How about Printing to the Adobe PDF driver?

If you can get the individual PDF's produced easily then the "stitching
together" should be simple with the Create PDF from Multiple Files command
within Acrobat.

I have gone through and saved every chapter individually to 
PDF.  Every single one generated ok.

But then when I try to gen the PDF, it only creates a text file that 
says that it fails on page 49.

Sigh.

This is a HUGE doc.
