[ILL-L] Ariel changing documents to GDIs

[Caton, Cynthia C]

Hello,

This is a known issue to Ariel tech support. Ariel 4.1.1 inflates PDF files
so much that you can't send them.  We now save our PDF's and then Morph them
into Tif's and then send via Ariel or email.

Linda,
This happened to us all the time. We stopped sending articles that way
because of it. We now just do email pdf's to requestors. It eliminates having
to do them over and over again. If you find out what causes it, I'd sure like
to know.

Hi folks.   I wonder if anyone else has had this problem.

We are running Ariel v. 4.1.1 with a Minolta PS 5000c scanner.   The scanner
is supposedly creating PDFs but when we sent the documents via Ariel many of
them are transformed to unreadable GDIs.    Does anyone know what we can do
to stop this from happening?   We send and delete documents, so we often have
to rescan and mail them if we're the only lenders.   Not what we need for
efficient workflow....
