[Framers] Win 10 Build 1803 Breaks FrameMaker Ability to make PDF.

[quills]

Since Windows 10 was released, several years ago, it has been noted in the Windows community forums that Windows 10 hijacks PDF. This is a Known issue, one that Adobe is upset about and Microcrap isn’t.

As usual, Microsoft is the most prolific malware on the market.

Save As PDF, Print, Print to file, etc. all gave the same FrameMaker error: "Cannot print because the selected default printer is not compatible with FrameMaker. (cannot query escape 768)". I changed the default printer and tried different methods with the same results. I tested both FrameMaker 2017 (TCS) and FrameMaker 2015. I tried two different computers, one with 2015. Same results. Creating a PDF from Word or other non Adobe apps works fine.

I created one PDF, and then checked Win Updates. It was already installing 1803 again within about 10 minutes. I paused it to shut it down.
