Hi. 

When I am creating PDF files from FM files, colored text in the FM files changes to the standard black in the PDF files. I have not made any changes to my Distiller or FrameMaker PDF setup settings, so I don't know why this is happening now. 

I am running Win NT, FM 6.0, and Acrobat Distiller 3.02. 

This may all be related to the fact that my company hasn't upgraded to the latest version of Acrobat yet, but for now I'm stuck with it, as the project I'm working on has to have PDF files that are compatible with Acrobat 2.1. 

The way we have created PDF files in the past is to use the "Save as PDF" option. I know this is discouraged on these boards, but we have never had any problems, until now. 

I would try printing directly to the Distiller, but for some reason the Distiller "printer" is not available on my system, and I cannot figure out how to get it back (sorry, that may be a question for the Distiller board). 

Does anyone have any suggestions on my colored text problem? 

Thanks, Jim
