Root around in your Distiller printer. Use Start|Printers to find the distiller printer, open the printer properties, and search for the PPD information. It's in there, spend some time and find it. This PPD should ba Adist*.ppd, not generic.ppd or any other ppd. 

If you are getting black and white output you are either not using the Distiller printer or you did not create the Distiller printer using the correct PPD. 

File > Print from FrameMaker is the easiest way to get PDFs. Save as is not recommended, especially if you are having problems, because it is difficult to troubleshoot.

P.S. I believe FrameMaker 5.5.6 is the earliest version of FrameMaker supported in Windows 2000. 

P.P.S. Have you told us what version of Adobe Acrobat you are using?
