Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

hi all,

i can easily convert an office to pdf, but when i convert primavera file to pdf i’m strugling a lot and not giving good result or no result at all, and if i’m doing it in another computer it is working easily, using the same procedure and the same default, what is the problem with my P3? do i have a problem with my p3 or my computer?

I’ve had similar issues printing to PDF from P3 via Adobe PDF Writer. I’ve downloaded PDF995 (www.pdf995.com) and haven’t had any problems since.

I had problems with using Adobe Acrobat to create PDFs from P3 (not sure of the SP installed on my workstation, but probably none, given our IT support)

I switched to using PDFCreator and have had no problems with it. I have read elsewhere that others have had difficulties but it works fine for me.

Maybe you didn’t install SP2 (or SP3) on that pc.
