Jason, apologies if some of this was specified earlier, but the thread is getting long.

Have you tried taking a problem chapter and doing Save As MIF, then reopening the MIF file and saving again as a regular FM binary file? This sometimes cleans out gremlins.

What kind of content is in the problem FM files, i.e. is it text only or are there graphics (what kinds of file types), what type of fonts. What we need to concentrate on is where there might be differences between your printing / non-printing files.

For the text, was the content entered directly into FM via the keyboard or could it have had some/all copied and pasted in, e.g. from another FM doc, from Word or somewhere else?

If there are graphics, how are they inserted into the file, by reference in anchored frames, copied and pasted, inserted as OLE objects (linked or unlinked). As a test could you take a backup copy of the problem book and remove all the graphics files, then try making a PDF.

Another troubleshooting step is to save the problem file as MIF and then look at the MIF in a text editor or else (much easier) via MifBrowse, a freebie available here:

Is it possible that you can provide a sample FM chapter for examination?
