PDF/Frame issue

Darren and Others,

   Okay, I closed out all of the other files and restarted Frame. Now,
all I have open are three book files and the single file that has the
drawings and callouts. I printed to PDF again and I still have the issue
of the callouts not showing up. These callouts HAVE been there before in
PDF files and I need them to be again because that's how we distribute
the documents to our customers as well as save them on the Web site. I
have Acrobat Professional 8.1.0. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks much in advance,

Darren,

   The files are PDFs and are imported by reference. Originally, the
files were Autocad, I believe. I'm not sure, but I THINK it may be
caused by the large number of Frame files I have open at the moment. I'm
going through the books and making sure the cross-references are
correct, and I'm about to print the file, so I have all of the chapters
open at the moment. My machine has 2 GB of RAM, but it might not be
enough for what I'm trying to do. In the past, these callouts have
printed out into the PDF just fine, so I'm hoping it's just a matter of
the number of files open.

What type of files are the drawings?

All,

 

   I have some PDF files of drawings with callouts on them. These files
are inserted by reference into a chapter in Frame 7.2 (on Win XP). So
far, so good. When I try to make a PDF of the chapter, the callout
numbers on the drawings disappear. The callout arrows and circles are
still there, but the numbers are gone. Any ideas on what's happening?

 

Thanks much in advance!
