Hello Fred, I just tried: printing to the PDF printer uses the standard size, e.g. DIN A4, if this is set. Which is absolutely not what the save as PDF option does. So I would have to go to the settings to adjust over and over again. It does not seem an efficient method, as I am dealing

I have heard the same solution from Adobe techs, and it was clear they considered the case closed. I have used FM 7-11 on network drives (and even on Google Drive) without issue; I think it is a way to get us off the phone. Of course, if that's the best they can do, then I, too, consider the case

Been a while since I looked at them, but have you checked out the templates Adobe has? They're from version 5.5.x, but they should be more than enough to get you started. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=22platform=Windows Scroll way down the page until you see Version
