Hmmm. This looks like a recurrence of an old bug from years ago ... where the RGB option (or was it CMYK) would not work for Save as PDF.

Just saw the word from Adobe: Hi All Just to update you on the issue with Win 10, version 1803. With Win 10 (1803) 1. File -> Save as PDF , RGB option selected is not working 2. File -> Save as PDF, CMYK option selected is working 3. File -> Print option is not working. We have isolated the cause of problem and it is related to "Printer Escape Function" which seems broken with version 1803. We have reported on this issue to Microsoft and working with our Partners team to get this resolved as soon as possible. In the interim, only workaround would be to move back to 1709 version of Windows 10. We will keep everyone updated as we hear back from Microsoft Team Regards Amitoj Singh Product Manager , Adobe Technical Communication Tools ________________________________ From: Framers <framers-bounces+jeff.coatsworth=jonasclub....@lists.frameusers.com> on behalf of tamm...@spectrumwritingllc.com <tamm...@spectrumwritingllc.com> Sent: May 8, 2018 4:27 PM To: 'An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software.' Subject: Re: [Framers] Win 10 Build 1709 Breaks FrameMaker Ability to make PDF. In response to an offlist inquiry: I went and checked and in BOTH places where this option should be TURNED ON is indeed turned on. (Adobe PDF Printing Preferences and Adobe PDF Printer Properties > Advanced > Printing Default.) I have had this option checked in both places on multiple systems (Win 7, Win 10) for both FM 10 and 13 and two systems with FM 10/12 have this checked and they are Win 7 64-bit. however, all of a sudden, this single Windows 10 system on which the function has been working for over a year has jst cr*pped out for no apparent reason. And I am on build 1709, not 1803, which MS has stopped rolling out anyway for known PDF issues. I can still Save as PDF and I can print to a PDF but as we all know, being able to print to a PS file and then distill it is much more advantageous for certain FM books/files. Any/all thoughts are sincerely appreciated.

OK, so here's the full explanation: I can Save as PDF and I can print the book as a PDF using the Adobe PDF printer (with Print to File not selected), but all of a sudden, I cannot select Print to File and print any FM book/file to a postscript file so that I can distill this file to a PDF, which has distinct advantages as we all know when working with certain FM books. The ability to print any FM file in either FM10 or 12 to a postscript file on Windows 10 has just cr*pped out totally. Any and all thoughts are sincerely appreciated.

When you check *Generate Acrobat Data*, then *Print to File* is automatically checked. Uncheck *Print to File* and click *Print*. I find this gets around the system font issue and goes faster with no noticeable quality or performance penalty.
