10. Before invoking the print command, if you haven't told Quark™ where to find the Distiller PPD (PostScript® Printer Definition file) then do so now. The PPD contains all the information Distiller® needs to output the job. click Utilities > PPD Manager. In the following dialog, if it is not listed, then click the "Browse" button to locate it. Navigate to the folder that contains the PPD. When Acrobat is installed on a Windows® system, it gets placed in the \Windows\System folder. Highlight the PPD file and click "Open". In Mac® OS systems it may be located in the System Folder:Extensions:Printer Descriptions folder or the Adobe Acrobat 3.0:Xtras folder or the Adobe Acrobat 4.0:Xtras folder - depending on which version you have.
