Adobe appears to have made a KB article about this, and supplied updates 
for the English, French, German, and Japanese versions of Adobe 
FrameMaker 2015 and 2017 from this page:
https://helpx.adobe.com/framemaker/kb/cannot-generate-pdf-after-win-10-april-update.html
There is no installer for this file - you have to extract the EXE file, 
and replace the existing FrameMaker.exe file.

According to the Adobe Tech Comms Tools Product Manager, there's a forum 
entry that indicates that the PDF output may affect PDF output as the 
Windows change affects widths of printing of characters.

As it is not listed on the Adobe Downloads support page:
https://supportdownloads.adobe.com/product.jsp?product=22&platform=Windows
... I would hazard a guess that Adobe won't say it is really fixed yet.

P.S. I so detest Windows 10.  It makes Windows 8 look positively stable 
and well designed!
