If you are using web services, make sure you include the proxy files. Create a Distiller service client Before you can programmatically perform a Distiller service operation, you must create a Distiller service client. If you are using the Java API, create a DistillerServiceClient object. If you are using the web service API, create a DistillerServiceService object.
