Quick rundown on the problem.
I'm running a somewhat old G4 with OSX, MS Office X, Acrobat CS2 and
sufficient memory and hard disk space. The printer is a Fuji Xerox "do
everything" monster. All of the software is the latest version, including
various downloaded updates.
All of a sudden this morning, after absolutely no software or hardware
changes that I know of, Entourage stopped printing to the printer and to
PDFs.
All other applications, including other MSOffice apps, work normally when
printing to the Fuji Xerox printer or a PDF.
So far, I have deleted the entire office suite, the Microsoft preferences
file and the printer driver, and installed them using clean copies, then
upgraded. I have NOT discarded my Entourage database, because I'd really
rather retain access to those 600MB of messages... The above, with
innumerable restarts, had absolutely no effect.
When I print to the printer, the file displays as printing, and the printer
shows data being received. The printer than shows "Normal completion" and
nothing happens.
When It ry to print to a PDF, however, Distiller produces an error log
reading:
=====

%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
=====
In addition, the following line is added to the console.log:
=====
Ignoring Quickdraw drawing between QDBeginCGContext and QDEndCGContext
=====
I think that's all the information I have...
If anybody has any sugestions on what might possibly be causing the problem,
I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks for your time.
