Preview locks files, not only when open, but also after being closed
I hand-create PostScript files, which are tested by being dragged to Adobe Distiller. This application is unhappy if the same-name PDF is busy. And if not busy, the same-name PDF is happily over-written. So far, so good.
Until recently, whilst Preview had a PDF open, it could not be overwritten—somehow marked as busy, I guess. If closed, if could.
But within the last two weeks this behaviour has changed. Preview 5.5.2 (719.25), under Lion, keeps them ‘busy’ even after the file is closed or Preview is quit. It fails to un-mark as ‘busy’. So I have to drag the PDF to the trash before Adobe Distiller will ‘overwrite’.
Please, is there any once-off action I can take to fix this new bug?
