Can't Print to PDF from FM10 and Acrobat X

OK, between the problem with printing a PS file and this new information, I
think the problem is with the Acrobat installation, and probably nothing to
do with Frame.

One thing to double check -- when you installed FM, you should NOT have
installed the bundled, limited Acrobat distiller.... if you did, you should
uninstall that because it causes a conflict with the whole Acrobat program
that's on the system.

Either way, if I were you, I'd download a favorite utility of mine, Revo
Uninstaller and use it to uninstall Acrobat. If you don't want the extra
utility, still uninstall Acrobat X.
Reboot.
Then reinstall Acrobat, maybe with a fresh "eval" download from the web
site into which you can plug your license code...
When you reinstall, make sure that you're installing with a user account
that has local Admin privileges.
