I was wondering if people have been experiencing this problem.

I have been unable to save my characters to PDF using CutePDF Writer. It isn't a problem with CutePDF since I have been able to save things to PDF from other programs.

I am glad my membership (or membershi*) is up. I won't be renewing if they can't stabilize this clusterfunk of software. It is pretty sad that the skin and bones Dragon and Dungeon magazines are now the only drawing point for me.

Drama queen much?????

I use CutePDF to save characters for other people at my FLGS. I did 4 today with no problems.

So perhaps it is your computer or something with CutePDF and not the CB.

Dec 28, 2010 17:47:59 Wow, taking the time on Christmas morning to call someone a "drama queen"??

Have to agree though, most likely a PC issue.

Dec 30, 2010 17:33:03 It's likely a combination -- the PDFs being generated are not true PDFs; they are just wrappers for enormous 600dpi images. So anything on your PC that is a little bit underpowered or out of whack might well choke on them. It's been happening for other people with printers and so on.

Until we get real PDFs, these errors will persist

Had the same problem; if you set CutePDF to 144dpi instead of 600dpi in its preferences, you should find that sorts it.
