With smaller files this is not a problem. I can open other large pdf files no problem. The problem seems to be Windows XP Professional. I have repeated the process on 2 other machines. On the Windows Vista machine it works well. On the Windows XP machine I have the same problem. Both machines running XP Professional have the latest updates. Please help if you can. Hi

The regular properties fields under the Summary tag are left blank. This happens even if you choose to copy the properties under the Options button of Save as PDF. In our case I'm going to have to write a field-copier for all the chapter names, index terms, etc. in a couple of hundred docs that need to go into our document indexing program. I don't know who to "thank" for this fubar, MS or Adobe.
