Not according to Dov:
"Simply stated, FrameMaker [7.1] bundles a copy of Distiller for users
who don't already have the full Acrobat product installed. If you
already have the full Acrobat product installed, installing the
bundled version of Distiller will bunnystomp on your existing
installation of full Acrobat."

And yet, the FM installer "offers" you to install Distiller 6.0
in parallell with your full Acrobat installation...
*sigh* Why can't Adobe ever learn to get their installers right?
If this is rocket science, we're a long way from putting George Bush
on Mars (or whatever that news was some time ago).
