PPT notes don't print correctly since Adobe updates

I used to be easily able to convert PowerPoint notes into a handout that matched the Notes Master template (what’s seen on the View > Notes Page). It made Instructor Guides and Student Guides a snap. I loved it.

When I went to do that again recently, it would only convert the pdf to the Slide view. The Notes are now on a separate layer that can be toggled on or off, but I could not get it to work as it used to. It’s like it no longer recognizes the Notes Master. I even followed the process to convert the PDF from Print view, and it still won’t work. 

I’m so frustrated! This used to be a simple, easy one-click asset that saved me time and looked great. Now, it’s inexplicably changed for the worse, and I’ve spent hours and different attempt methods to no avail.
