Thanks to the people who sent me great sample scripts and links to framescript 
forum! I figured out my problem - I had Adobe PDF set as my default printer, 
but I also needed to go to the preferences for the Adobe PDF printer and turn 
off "Rely on system fonts only..." I thought I had done that already but it 
needed to be done again. Now my script works fine! Hurray for PDF build 
automation...

I'm working on creating a script that automates all PDF builds for all our 
documentation books and I seem to have run into a snag - I can get everything 
to work so far except after my script opens the files, runs checks, applies 
templates etc in FrameMaker, I haven't been able to command it to save the book 
as a PDF. For example, here's my current simplified test script that opens a 
book, opens its files, and saves it as a PDF. Everything happens except no PDF 
save, no PDF created. Maybe someone could spot what I'm missing? Did some 
requirement of FrameScript change with FrameMaker 9? (This used to work in 
FrameMaker 7, with an earlier version of FrameScript :] )
