Using Adobe PDF Printer is also bad news: You lose all of your bookmarks. See my previous post on this, using PDF Creator as the printer. Bookmarks ARE preserved.
Hmmm. Maybe Adobe should take a look at the PDF Creator source code (FOSS, GNU license) to see how to do it right!

Did you try printing to the Adobe PDF printer instead of using Save As PDF? It's long-standing advice in the FM world that if Save As PDF is causing problems, try setting your printer to Adobe PDF and printing to it. If it still doesn't work, set your printer to Adobe PDF, print to a Postscript file (extension .ps), and then open that file with Distiller.
