This problem happens frequently enought that we've included it in our
in-house documentation. Here's what we say:

PDF doesn’t open to the first page
This problem commonly happens to books converted to FrameMaker 7 from
earlier versions. To fix this problem, perform the following steps:

1. Open the FrameMaker book file, and select the first line (the book), as
shown in the following illustration.

<< Picture would go here >>

2. Choose Format >> Document >> PDF Setup. The PDF Setup for Selected Files
window opens.

3. On the Settings tab, enter 1 in the Open PDF Document On Page field,
then click Set.


----------------
It seems the problem occurs because the book hasn't been told on which
page to open. That's why the last file "wins".

Hope this helps.
