Hello, I'm a subscriber and have recently installed FM 2015, but I get the message To execute "Save as PDF" command you must have Acrobat Distiller version 5.05 or higher installed". FM can't find the app altho' it's supposed to install with the package at subscription...Do you know what to do?

Thanks

FM comes with a "headless" version of Acrobat Distiller - if you've got the "full" version, this can sometimes mess it up. But in your case it sounds like it didn't get installed properly in the first place. I'd try running the installer again as an Admin. You should end up with an "Adobe PDF" printer installed in Windows.
