OK, I understand what you're saying.

That's the behaviour you get if the Print To File checkbox is active in the FM Print Dialog box. If you're 100% sure that checkbox is NOT checked when you click Print... maybe check the Distiller settings.

When you open Acrobat Distiller from the Programs menu, there should be preferences that "Ask for PDF file destination" and "View PDF when using Distiller." You might try activating those, but they're normally over-ridden by the settings in FM.

If it all looks OK, you could try a two-step process to generate a PS file in FM (to do this, you want to check that Print To File checkbox is active in the FM Print Dialog box and fill in the path, taking care to specify a .ps file extension. That'll generate a PS file that you can File > Open in Distiller.
