... well I did not think that girl could be so cruel.

Well done, sir. I salute you!

I may have asked this already, but I'm asking again. Color me determined.

Is there any way to print a 30 page document to Postscript and get 30 individual .ps files? I've been doing it page by page and I'm sick of it. Found a few utilities online, but nothing free. Any scripts or plugins? FREE?

Export as eps and distill them
Indesign exports one eps per page :laugh:

I have a script at work that will do it. I'll post it tomorrow.I think it'll do PS,PDF and ESP. It works for Indesing CS1-4.

But I still think that exporting as eps is faster!

I think she is using Acrobat 6 Standard (not pro...remember that?) on Windows XP and if I remember right she can't do some of the things mentioned here in this thread.

That's right. This was all covered in the "Making the smallest PDF possible" thread, and after much fucking around the best result I've found is to distill Postscript files. I just find it absurd to have to print them one by one from Indy to get single PDFs. The saga continues.

Thanks Adriano, I'll try that tomorrow. If it works I'm buying you beer.

Can't wait
Buy me now, buy me now :grin: :grin: :grin:

Um, oops. Did I just give you a shove off the wagon?

I'm on it, too. Until Friday, anyway.  :laugh:

I would also go with the export as eps. It will flatten the transparency the same as a ps and will give you separate files to distill.

[mattbeals]

Email it to me and I'll split it for  you.
