Exporting/Saving as EPS files

[Paul Marcomms]

Bloody program!! For some inexplicable reason, Freehand has decided to no
longer allow me to save or export graphics as EPS files. It just comes up with
a warning message box saying that read or write access has been denied. I have
checked the file attributes and they are normal. The document report feature
says that the file's 'access' attributes are set to read/write and I can
save/export the file in any format other than EPS so that tells me FreeHand is
lying. I don't really want to go the uninstall/reinstall route but unless
anybody has any ideas what is causing this, I may have too. Can anybody help?
By the way, I am using FH 11 (Version 11.02) on a PC under Windows 2000.

I found the solution amongst Macromedia's TechNotes. The problem occured
immediately after printing a document directly from FreeHand, something I
rarely do. I didn't have a UserPrep file for a Postscript printer selected and
that somehow affected the save/export as eps function. Very WIERD!!
