PDF wierdo thing

I published several drawings from Plotmaker to pdf files. Three of them showed up as failed on the dialgoue box when publishing. Could not get them to publish; changed the dpi, plot to black and white, updated the drawing.
Very irritated at this situation, to say the least. Later, by chance, happened to look in the file where I had saved the published files, and lo and behold, the files were there anyway. Was able to open the pdf, all looked fine.
Published again for the heck of it, still indicated the publish failed, but it really did publish.

Any clues here?

What are you using to publish PDFs? Acrobat 7 seems to cause weirdo stuff all over my machine. Have upgraded to 7.0.5 and its helped, but just a little.

I was using version 6, but upgraded as you did. Haven't tried it yet.
