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.
