Summary0012417: unable to export as anything (PDF; image, etc.)
DescriptionI have quite a heavy file that I need to export as a PDF to send to a printer. Since yesterday I have tried to export it as PDF, tried to "print it" with Cute PDF writer, tried to export it as an image (jpeg, png, etc.), as an EPS and none of it works.
Additional InformationThe file is composed of many elements, four of them are heavy images (about 1 or 2 mo each).
The rest of it are text boxes.
The file is supposed to be a big poster (1 meter x 1.4 meter) so the quality needs to be perfect.
TagsNo tags attached.

When I try to open the PDF file "created" it tells me that it cannot be open because "MSVCP71.dll" is missing.

If you want us to inspect your document, you need to collect your document data using File > Collect for output (Fichier > Rassembler pour la sortie), and not forget to check the include font and profiles options. Then compress collected data and upload it to an online storage service.

Using the .sla document alone, I can export it to PDF and view it without issue.

This is not related to Scribus. Scribus does not use that dll. That message says that some other program installed on your computer which use that dll is broken.

I can open the .sla fine on OSX 10.8.5 1.5.0svn r19303 but without all the media files it's not possible to confirm 100% If and when myriam will follow-up with jghali's advice the sooner we may be able to help. I've set this issue to 'feedback'.

I found that the problem came from one of the photos (a pdf). I didn't have time to wait so I changed it, used a jpeg and it went rather fine after that.
Thank you all for your help!

Closing issue since not Scribus related.
