FM crashes on print book to file (surprise! No?)

[Art Campbell]

The job option info is here at adobe:

I actually like this "bug" a lot, because it lets you isolate one or
two settings files and reserve them for use in FM, but still keep as
many as you want available in Acrobat. Makes  always getting the right
setting file in FM easy, cause there aren't any options.
