If you REALLY want to create PDFs...

If you REALLY want to create PDFs get Adobe InDesign CS.

PDF + Quark

All fine and dandy but my experience is that the files are not good enough for professional printing. Also you have to have a laser printer driver installed.
I have tried to download them and have done it for the PC but not Mac. any ideas?

Not explained well enough.

I have new computer and much to be installed yet. Did install QuarkXpress 6 but need to work it out. I had a request to send a brochure I created ASAP and tried to do it as a PDF. I could send it easily enough but all the graphic elements were reduced incorrectly and I could not understand from David Blatner's explanation what or why it went wrong. I need to install Adobe's CS Suite and try it again I guess.

Exporting Quark 6.0 files as pdfs

When I export my files for print they do not come out with the settings in my Distiller setup, files with PDF/X-1a:2001 compliant which I selected and set up for pdfs setting.

And when I make files through the printer way they take a very long time to produce,
a one color book that is 140 pages could take over a half hour to print as a PDF.
What could be slowing it up?
