Hi,
Are there any advantages/disadvantages to using the SAVE AS PDF function
over printing to a postscript file and then distilling?
In FM 6, yup, a lot of disadvantages; somewhat fewer in later versions.
See http://www.microtype.com/FM_bugs.html
for the full story.
If you install Setprint from Sundorne
http://www.sundorne.com/FrameMaker/Freeware/setPrint.htm
you can set up Distiller (or Adobe PDF or whatever your version of it is
called) as the default printer within FM, while leaving your regular h/w
printer as the default in other applications. Then you can simply print
your FM docs to PDF.
