Here is an update.
Yesterday while on site the end user informed me that if he printed the document to PDF from Indesign which will print the document to a file, then tries to print the original Indesign document, it will print.
After creating a PDF but not printing that PDF but printing the same document in Indesign, why will it then print. Does it do something to the original document when it is printed to PDF, fix some errors in the document?
When trying to print the original document in Indesign CS5 the printer will only print a few pages that say:
ERROR: Syntaxerror
OFFENDING COMMAND:
STACK
63.135

or

ERROR: syntaxerror
OFFENDING COMMAND: binary token, type=138
STACK:

Can anyone help me with this???

BTW, John and I spoke on the phone, he wasn't referring to my "what's the error?" post Razz

Error: Undefined usually indicates data corruption or communication loss. It is not usually a true "Error". In a true PS error, there is a problem with the PS code, in an Undefined error, there is usually either no code or garbage.

We solved the problem. We changed a setting within InDesign CS5 from "Binary" to "ASCII".
I do not know why this works since that same setting in InDesign CS4 is set to "Binary" but it fixed the problem.
Much thanks to JasonR for taking the time to call me and discuss the problem. Not alot of people would do that and I really appreciate it.
I have attached a screen shot of the change from within InDesign CS5.
Feel free to comment on why this would have made a difference as I have no clue.
John
