Hi All: I remember someone asking about something similar maybe last
year, but can't find it in archives.
I created an AI-CS2 file with multiple layers with each layer having an
individual linked image. One layer overlays all the others, as a sort
of "master sheet", showing some file identification and cropping guides
for all 8 illustrations. When I make a pdf, only the master sheet and
one illustration layer is visible, all the other layers are turned off.
Today, I updated all the linked images.
Now, the Illustrator CS2 started making horrible pdf files. Last week
or so they were fine. As of today, when I substituted a "placed" jpeg
file with an updated drawing, and after saving that layer as a PDF
(under SAVE AS). The resulting PDF files show all the linked images as
a heavy gray square and the pencil line drawing is multicolored. (they
were scanned grayscale). It's like they are grossly overexposed or
something. The master sheet with text is fine.
I select "Smallest File" under the PDF choices, and deselect future
editing capabilities.
Anyone have a clue what is happening?
I can sent samples off list if that is helpful.
Help!
thank you.
Linda
