Publisher created PDF crashes phototshop...... Arc 14

I am using a student version of archicad for my master thesis

When i publish a pdf that has a "floor plan" as a source for the layout (at any resolution). The resultant PDF can be open by
acrobat but crashes photoshop or illustrator (immediately upon opening of the file...appears to never even create thumbnail in open file box)...

(this also happens outside of the publisher using save as pdf for floorplan)

I have tried to resolve on a number of differenct computers and tried CS4 and CS5.

do not have problem for 3ds details, elevations, sections just floor plan
sources...

In my project I had this issue, and i've found that the source of this was a composite wall. Maybe it;s about fill i was using there or something. When i delete composite wall photoshop read it. Any ideas what could it be exacly?


edit: Looking further i've found that the source was i insulation01 pattern in composite wall. Whan i changed it to background all works fine i photoshop, when i try do ad this photoshop crashes.
