Failed to export pdf file - why?
The export process dies with the error mesage "Failed to export pdf file".
Please include the cause of the error! How can a simple user figure out what was the cause of the error? Practically the whole production process stops here, because inDesign continuously refuses to export the PDF.
I'm able to export the PDF 2-3 times, then the error comes. I can get rid of the error only by restarting the computer - obviously not a solution when working on catalogs.
Dear IT team, please include what is the cause of the PDF export problem.

I've also had this issue happen over and over going back at least a year when I switched to Windows 10. Sometimes (only sometimes) this is solved by restarting the app, but not all the time. Sometimes you have to size down individual images within the document itself, and once in a while, you can't even export at all to a PDF. Pretty frustrating that Adobe hasn't fixed this ongoing issue that's been happening for AT LEAST a year. I'm not expecting they're going to do anything about it, but that would be nice anyways.
