Hello,

I usually create PDF’s from other apps – namely, ArcMap and Autocad – and import them in PS to fiddle with them. Now, I never had any problem doing that with CS, but CS2 is giving me all sorts of headaches:

– the preview window. I really don’t want that. I mean, if I’m importing a full-page A0 at 150 dpi the rasterizing process is already long enough without having to wait the additional minutes (minutes!) for the tiny, useless preview image. I can’t seem to find a way to turn it off, but I trust someone here will point me to the hidden but obvious solution?

– Every now and then (usually when I’m on a deadline) I get a perfectly-looking PDF file, except after rasterization it becomes a blank image. I *can* get an actual working image by exporting as a TIFF from Acrobat, but that makes it lose transparency – which I really do need, of course. I tried different resolutions to no avail – it must be said that it only happens with vectors, but knowing that doesn’t help me much.

Help?

ADP.
