What were you trying to do?
	use Acrobat distiller, i.e.,
	>distill filename.ps

	to create a .pdf file readable with Acrobat reader.

What's wrong:
	I regularly get the error,
	run: unable to open input file: No such file or directory

	Then, inexplicably, I will try the same command on the same file
	and it will work.

What should have happened:
	It should have then asked me what compatibility I wanted to use
	and then spit out .log and .pdf files.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	OLC has no idea what could be going on, and I haven't heard of
	anyone else having the problem. However, I only know of one other
	person who has used distiller on Athena, and I doubt he does so
	regularly.
