Diana,

There is no such thing as an "Acrobat PDF v9" file. I will assume that you 
really
mean a "PDF file generated via Acrobat 9."

I don't think that you are really encountering a problem with the fact that a 
file
may have been produced with Acrobat 9, but rather that the joboptions used to 
create
the PDF file exceed the import capabilities for PDF as it existed in the 
FrameMaker 7
timeframe.

FrameMaker 7 was released in 2002 (approximately 8 years ago). The current 
version of
Acrobat at that time was Acrobat 5 which supported PDF 1.4. FrameMaker 7 most 
likely
does not support import of PDF versions greater than PDF 1.4 (and probably not 
that
version particularly well, either!).

Recent versions of Acrobat and Adobe Creative Suite applications ship with 
predefined
joboptions that are set for either PDF 1.4 or PDF 1.5. PDF 1.5 supports 
internal PDF
object compressions and JPEG2000 image compressions not supported by PDF 1.4.

If you have a PDF file that won't import into FrameMaker, open same in Acrobat 
and
via CTRL-D, determine what PDF version it is. If PDF 1.5 or greater, it most 
likely
will not import into FrameMaker under any condition. Workaround is to either use
the tools in Acrobat to dumb down the file to PDF 1.4 or to save the file as EPS
files and import the EPS into FrameMaker.

Of course, you may want to update your 8-year old version of FrameMaker.

        - Dov
