Failure to fully export pdf from InDesign CS2 (application unexpectedly quits)


i found technote detailing such issue when save or export pdf after adobe application has been left idle several days. however, when tried both suggested solutions, unable fix problem. may have corrupt file, file saves , shows no signs of error.

when try export file pdf file indesign cs2, don't error message when save file. receive error message when try open resulting pdf file has not been processed.

the error message see follows:

* exporting pdf file indesign cs2: file appears save without error, when open file acrobat see error "acrobat not open '[file name]' because either not supported file type or because file has been damaged (for example, sent email attachment , wasn't correctly decoded). create adobe pdf document, go source application. print document adobe pdf."

thus, tried solution 1: upgrading mac mac os x v10.5. didn't work.

then tried solution 2: save file, , restart application. did not work.

the technote goes further detail, explaining:
"when save or export pdf files photoshop cs2, acrobat 7, illustrator cs2, or indesign cs2, application must reference temporaryitems file located in /tmp/501. prior mac os x.v10.4, mac os x regularly deleted files in /tmp folder had not been used or modified within period (approximately 2 or 3 days). if adobe application running unused several days, mac os x prior version v10.4, delete temporaryitems file. when save or export file pdf, adobe application attempts reference no-longer existing temporaryitems file results in errors or faulty pdf creation.

when restarting adobe application , save or export pdf, application rebuilds temporaryitems file."

does have other suggestions solution query?
