I fixed the issue. Since I am subscribed to Acrobat DC through Creative Cloud I uninstalled Acrobat DC waited a few seconds then reinstalled.  The installer update the Automator action I can now create PDF's using The adobe PDF engine instead of the apple version.

You can't automate what does not exist. This has not existed since Apple blocked it after Mac OS 10.7. You must use a different way to make PDF, automated or not.
