Frame Postscript Output Problem

[Scott White]

TO continue this saga, I checked with my client this morning about the  
Adobe PDF writer port. Her's is set exactly as mine is -- Port: My  
documents\.pdf.
Just for grins I had her change the port to desktop\.pdf. She is going  
to run a test.

I'll also try setting up a port just for file as had been suggested.

I need to check the log that gets generated with this next test as  
well. And check to see if she has permissions to write to her desktop  
though she is able to export data from our filemaker solution to the  
desktop so I doubt that is a problem.
