How does one configure FM to do Save-As PDF with the correct output page sizes (e.g., book with mixed letter/tabloid pages) in PDF? This is not a problem if a book print setup is set to tabloid and printed to .ps then distilled; the output reflects the original page sizes. With Save-As, if the page size is set to tabloid, all the pages in the output will be tabloid.
