Project 2007 convert to Adobe PDF

[sc53308]

I am trying to convert a Project 2007 file into an Adobe PDF file. We
are running Adobe Pro 8. Once the button "Convert to Adobe PDF" is
clicked Project crashes. An Adobe file is created but once opened
also crashes after about 5 seconds.

Any ideas?

THere has been some traffic on this. It happens to me occassionally.
Try using 2D instead of 3D Gantt bars:

Tools/Options... pull the view tab. There is a grouping called "Show" and
it is the bottom check box on the left side above where it says "Cross
project linking..."

This should help, I have found it greatly reduces the size of the PDF as well.

The 3D Gantt bars was exactly our problem, thanks Jim - 5 stars!

When I have to supply a PDF file of a project I use PDF Factory - and it
works like a selected printer. It's easy, and I've not had any problems at
all with it.
