[MacDV] Screwed up Acrobat... Wants to Launch Classic-Help Please

[Matthew Guemple]

this is the same problem that I was talking to Chas about... Somewhere  
in the OT OSX thread of the last day.
It's really annoying. The work around I use is: export as a PostScript  
file and then use the Distiller portion of AR 5 to make a PDF...  
Distiller is another APP in the Acrobat 5 folder... I just added it to  
my dock to make things a little simpler...
Hope that helps.
