This issue was raised a few times in the past. In the case discussed below, Martin sent me generic sample files with which the problem was easily reproduced in FM 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2.
I'll patiently repeat my recommendation not to use "Save as PDF", for this and several other reasons. I fully agree with Diane Gaskill's recommendation: set the FrameMaker book name so that it has the name you need for your PDF, and don't change the name when print to a .ps file (or when/if you use "Save as PDF").
