JDW, thanks for your work. I usually make PDFs by printing to a file, which works on my 68K Macs without crashing. Then Preview makes PDFs after transferring to an OS X Mac. Sorry …

Mac128, yes I "assume" it will work as you describe when creating a PDF via Classic. I did not try that, instead booting my G4 directly into OS 9 and running MacDraw Pro from ther…

i'm running system 6.0.8 on a Macintosh Classic I. no external hardware ( aside from keyboard and mouse) Just an internal floppy and 40 mb HD
