This is caused by an incompatibility between our ‘customcolor’ definition and that of the application. A workaround for this is to add the following 3 lines to end of the ‘startup.ps’ file, which removes our customcolor procedure. (Save a copy of the original file) systemdict /setcustomcolor undef systemdict /setcustomcolorspace undef systemdict /findcmykcustomcolor undef The ‘startup.ps’ file can be found under: Program Files/Jaws Systems/Jaws PDF Creator/Default (Formerly Program Files/5D/5D PDF Creator/Default) Note: It may be necessary to manually switch to the original if problems are encountered when distilling other jobs that expect to find a pre-existing setcustomcolor definition.
