Joanna,
FrameMaker is not a graphic arts application. Its output is primarily RGB and
the PostScript generated by the driver is not setup to generate PDF that will
conform to the PDF/X-1a specification.
The PDF/X-1a specification doesn't allow for any of the cross reference stuff
capabilities of PDF, annotations, embedded video, etc. It is strictly for
old-style PDF CMYK and spot color printing without any transparency, layers,
JPEG2000 compression, etc.
Unfortunately, the current FrameMaker "save as CMYK PDF" doesn't quite work
right to yield a CMYK (plus spot color) PDF. The only workaround is to use
Distiller settings to convert the RGB to CMYK, a somewhat risky proposition, or
to use the color conversion features of Acrobat X Pro to selectively convert
colors from RGB to CMYK and then, use the Acrobat X Pro preflight function to
"fix" the file and create PDF/X-1a.
