Printing to PS does not retain previous file location

I have just upgraded from CS3.
My workflow when preparing files for the printer is to print to postscript file, then use distiller to convert the file to pdf for sending.
CS3 retained the file location, so that each time I performed the same action, it went straight to the previous folder where the postscript file (for the current AI file) was created.
Now, in CS6, it takes me back to 'My Computer' (equivalent in Windows 7) every time... which is really, really frustrating to have to re-navigate back to the same server path every time I output the file. (Which I do a lot as I do final checks and proofing within acrobat, so need to perform this process frequently).
I have Win7 64Bit.

I have been using Windows 7 for a year or so with CS3. This issue only arose with the upgrade to CS6..
Ok, just tested the process again in CS3 - it is session specific. I.e. when I go Print -> save to Postscript file, it presents the last file location used.
So, if I am running the process multiple times, it is awlays in that last folder used.
If I shut down Illustrator and open another file, it still presents that last folder used, but again, once I have set to the new working folder, it presents that location on subsequent processes.
However, with CS6, every time, even within the same session, it always defaults to the 'my computer' folder.

  • Browser: Print to PDF does not retain hyperlinks

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone can give me some guidance.
    I have several html pages that contain numerous hyperlinks throughout the page
    On each page there is a javascript print button (ie. onclick="window.print();returnfalse..........)
    Whenever a user chooses the option from the print dialog box to print the page to Adobe PDF,  the output (pdf) does not retain the hyperlinks.
    Is there a way, feature, or product that will allow external users to print to pdf and still have the hyperlinks work?

    Printing to PDF never includes interactive elements - it is what it says, a digital copy of a printed page. No links on a sheet of paper = no links on a PDF printout.
    To retain interactive content you must save the page as a PDF, for example using the Acrobat plugin for IE or Firefox.

  • Adobe Acrobat X - Saved Background Settings does not retain Source File

    Hello,
    I am using Adobe Acrobat X on windows 7.
    I have a pdf file that I use as a background source file.  When I select the Settings profile from the Saved Settings drop down it does not load in the Source File.  It still has "From Color" selected and <No Source File Selected> is in the path location. 
    No matter how many times I add the file and click the save settings button it will not retain it
    I've already tried both a 'repair' and 'reinstall' of the software.
    Any ideas as to why this might be happening? 

    Hi Adam Baranek,
    I am looking into this issue and will get back to you soon.

  • MW64,  cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the  context menu does not retain  recent folder destinations after I close the program

    W64,  cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the  context menu does not retain  recent folder destinations after I close the program. The context options that show are the ones from original install. The workspace I set up is also gone. I have every explorer box and cleaner checked to save recent. Had to disable nivedia desktop software because of weird display conflict. Have Dell pro support and they cannot fix. Any ideas to help me with this would be appreciated.

    Self-solved!  I work in column view in Finder so get there in a Finder window with folders and files appearing.
    There really is no problem, just select an ITEM in the COLUMN before right-clicking!
    The "old" context menu will appear. If you click in the white space in that column (or anywhere in a Finder window) and then place the cursor over a folder or file WITHOUT selecting it and right-click you will bring up the secondary context menu - Open, Copy, Duplicate, View Options and a greyed out Labels option. No "Move to Trash".

  • LR4.3 does not show previously imported CR2 files (5D mark III) by trial version

    LR4.3 does not show previously imported CR2 files taken using 5D mark III by trial version.
    When tried to synchronize the files not show when browsing, the import window comes up. All the Jpeg files, Raw files are seen in the window. None of them are highlighted nor selectable. LR is assuming that those files are already imported but if imported they are being shown for browsing or editing

    Maybe you have set a Filter in LR. Press Ctrl-L once or twice to turn it off.
    Maybe you don't have "All Photographs" selected in the Catalog Panel on the left.

  • MacOSX (10.9): Print dialogue box does not appear when printing PDF's

    Hi there,
    I've been having some troubles with the latest version of Adobe Reader on an intel-based MacBook Pro running MacOSX 10.9 (Mavericks).
    Environment Details:
    Device type: MacBook Pro
    OSX: 10.9 (Mavericks)
    Adobe Reader version: 11.0.06
    Details:
    After installing Reader 11.0.06, the print dialogue box does not appear through the print button or through File -> Print... . As a result, I simply cannot print PDF documents when using Adobe Reader.
    - Only 1 MacBook Pro affected
    - The print dialogue box does appear for other application (i.e. Preview, Word, Excel, etc., etc.)
    - Multiple restarts performed
    - Attempted to download older versions with no success
    - Attempted multiple uninstall/reinstalls
    - Reset the CUPS printing system multiple times
    - Validated that the account accessing/using Reader has full administrative privileges to the Adobe Reader application
    - Occurs for multiple PDF's from various sources
      -> Online source
      -> Converted from Word
    Additionally (I'm unsure if this is related or not), but after trying to perform an update, I receive the following error:
    An unimplemented or obsolete function was called
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers!

    Hi there,
    Just bumping this thread for more visibility.
    If anyone has any thoughts, I'd more than appreciate your advice!
    Cheers!

  • Print dialog window does not go away

    Hi,
    This is an issue I've experienced many times. When I try to print a web page from Safari, the print dialog opens, I select the printer and/or orientation, then I click on the "OK" button. But, the window does not respond, Safari seems to be working (it does not appear as 'not responding' in the 'force quit' dialog and the menus are selectable. But the window does not go away, nothing is sent to the printer, and Safari does not respond to certain operations such as moving to another tab, go back, or change the url, so basically I am stuck, no printing, and end up closing safari to open it again.

    Hello mario:
    Is this an intermittent problem, or does it happen all the time? I would, at a minimum, run repair disk from your software install DVD and also run permission repair from your HD.
    I would also trash the Safari preference file (com.apple.safari.plist) and restart.
    Of course, the problem could lie in the connectivity with your printer, but that is another issue.

  • Scroll bar does not retain its position after or before pack

    Hi
    My Scroll bar does not retain its position after pack in my application.
    But i need to retain its state.
    My code snippet is :
    System.out.println("VAlue--->" + getHXValue());
    scrollPane.getHorizontalScrollBar().setValue(getHXValue());
    pack();
    My VAlue printed is 100.
    But my positon of scroll bar is at 0 th location.
    Can any one help me.....

    Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    My code snippet is :Snippets don't help.
    If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",
    see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
    that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
    Don't forget to use the "Code Formatting Tags",
    see http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting,
    so the posted code retains its original formatting.

  • Hp C310 e all in one. Print that is stuck in the print queue, cancel does not remove

    hp C310 e all in one. I have a print that is stuck in the print queue, cancel does not remove says deleting. I have tried shutting down printer, closing word doc, multiple canel all prints. Any Ideas

    Hello mackice,
    Try these steps below to clear the print queue. The steps are listed for Vista and Windows 7 and would be slightly different for XP. If you are using a Mac then the steps below would not work. Please advise what OS you are using.
    Option 1)
    1. Click on start orb
    2. Type in search window: "services.msc" (without the quotes)
    3. click ok
    4. Scroll down to Printer spooler service and click on it in the right side window.
    5. On the left side click stop the service and wait forthe process to stop
    (Do not close the window yet. You will have to restart it here later.)
    6. next delete the print job in the printer queue
    7. then restart the spooler service
    8. Resubmit your new print job.
    Option 2)
    If that doesn't clear it, the next step would be to stop the spooler
    service as stated above
    Go into windows explorer
    (Print job data is collected and stored in a spool file in the spooler
    folder.)
    It is located in:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
    Your print job will show 2 files there Example below:
    00002.SHD
    00002.SPL
    Delete the files located in there. There may be several of them
    depending apon how many print jobs you submitted. You will have to
    resubmit your print jobs all over again.
    Next go back to services window and restart the spooler service

  • Firefox 29.0.1 Does Not Retain Options Settings. Cookies Enabled.

    On only one of my XP profiles, Firefox 29.0.1 does not retain the settings made under tools-options. I have deleted the cookies from Mozilla on the chance they may have been corrupted and have also cleared the web cache. The problem remains. Also, it is not clear in the new version how to have Firefox ask you each time before a cookie is accepted. Thanks for you help.

    You can try to delete the cookies.sqlite and permissions.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Director: Show Folder (Linux: Open Director; Mac: Show in Finder)
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
    * Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
    * Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
    * Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

  • Open/Save Dialog does not show new files?

    Say you are working on a logic file in a folder and you have
    a few audio and movie files in that folder, and you launch
    Logic and via the open/save dialog window you add a few
    files to your song and in that dialog window you can see
    all the files in that folder.
    Then, in the Finder you add a few more files and movies to
    that folder and again use the open/save dialog window to
    add more files BUT the new files you added since launching
    logic are NOT SHOWN in the dialog window ! ?
    What's the deal with that?
    Every other app can show files added since the launch of the
    application, why not Logic?
    PowerBook G4 1GHz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    project manager
    um, yeah.
    Should not need the project manager simply to see new files added to a directory in a Open/Save dialog window since last opening the app.
    I did a scan, a extended scan, opened all the little turn down arrows of the
    full path to the directory I knew there to be the new files and yes, Logic
    shows them there in the "Project manager".
    BUT Logic still does not show the files in the Open/Save dialog windows.
    This is strange because even simple app like TextEdit can show
    new files in it's Open/Save dialog function windows without the need of
    a project manager.
    I have to quit and re-launch each time to see any new files?
