Distiller crashing on start-up

Posted: 10-17-2008, 08:48 PM
Distiller just started crashing upon start-up. It gets to updating font information and that's where it crashes every time. I did just install a 3rd party font management program (Linotype Font Explorer X). I suspect that has something to do with it, but I don't know what. I can no longer create pdf's from Microsoft Word or Excel.
I am running OSX 10.4.11 with Acrobat Pro 8.
Here is part of the message in the report Distiller is creating on the crash:

Hopefully someone out there has a clue about this.
Thanks,

The problem could be the font manager, but is more likely a corrupt font.
