PDF Creation Issuse in FrameMaker

Hi,

I am using FrameMaker 17.0.0 version and struggling with the save as pdf option. Whenever, I tried to save as pdf, it throws out an error: 

"FraeMaker could not find Adobe PDF printer instance, which must be installed to execute Save as PDF command"

When I go for addition of "adobe print to pdf printer", i don't see that in my printer list (using an existing port in add printer setup). 

Any suggestion or solution for this, please?

Thanks,

This looks like another case of the vanishing Adobe PDF printer instance bug discussed in another thread lately in the FM forum.

It does not appear to be an FM-related problem, as it's being reported more widely.

Uninstalling/reinstalling FrameMaker will likely take care care of this but if the issue persists, you can email tcssup@adobe.com for help. This reaches a dedicated FrameMaker support team.

I had this issue just a few days ago. When I did a repair installation of Acrobat, this fixed this issue. The Adobe PDF printer re-appeared. And it kept being there.
