Does Acrobat 9 work with FrameMaker 7.0?

Richard,

Take a look at the Acrobat printer properties. I believe the Acrobat
printer port should be set to File, and I bet it isn't....
(And I'm on a different system and can't check.... )

It's been a while, so I've forgotten the details, but IIRC, the location where Acro 9 installs and expects to find the *.joboptions files is different, so I had to get my custom ones into the proper location. (I believe I now have a complete set of *.joboptions in 3 or 4 different locations, as Adobe seems to keep shifting those.)

Save As PDF works, as does printing to a file using Adobe PDF as the printer. I'm sure this can be fixed somehow, but I generally use Save As PDF, so it hasn't been a priority for me.
