During the years before Frame 7.0 was released, there were many, many messages on this list regarding using Save As PDF in FM 6.0. It worked for a few people who happened to have the right printer driver set up but many people complained that they were not getting the results they needed. A certain Adobe employee who sometimes posts on this list said many times, DON'T USE Save As PDF in FM 6.0 because it is badly broken and usually gives undesired results. When FM 7.0 was released, that same employee did announce on this list that Save As PDF works correctly in FM 7.0 and was OK to use.
Personally, however, I still print to postscript and then distill. It always works.

But yes, 6.x and earlier was problemmatic and best to print to file. -- Bill Swallow HATT List Owner WWP-Users List Owner Senior Member STC, TechValley Chapter http://techcommdood.blogspot.com _______________________________________________
