I have this problem but in my case it's consistent. After I've rebooted my computer, the first time I try to create a PDF from a file or book it doesn't work. If I immediately use "save as" again, it's fine. Catherine

If you installed the standalone version of Distiller that came with FrameMaker, it would be available to uninstall from the Add/Remove programs control panel. I would suggest that for reliability, you print to the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance in lieu of using the "save as PDF" feature. Please advise if that works consistently. - Dov > -----Original Message----- > From: Adam Schweitzer > Sent: Friday, June 15, 2007 5:49 AM > > I am having a problem trying to save Frame documents as PDF > files using the File->save as command.
