Two new updates for FrameMaker are available at adobe.com 
(links/description below): FM7.1p116 and FM7.0p579.

I installed the FM7.1 update and tested my sample FM files with problematic 
WMF print/PDF output -- results are OK now!

ADOBE FRAMEMAKER 7.1P116 UPDATE FOR WINDOWS - ENGLISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, AND 
JAPANESE
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2715
(52.6MB)

This patch updates all language versions of Adobe® FrameMaker® 7.1b023 
software (released in January 2004) and Adobe FrameMaker 7.1p114 (released 
in May 2004) to version 7.1p116. The FrameMaker 7.1p116 patch can be 
applied on an existing installation of FrameMaker 7.1b023 or 7.1p114.

The following is a summary of issues that are addressed in the release of 
FrameMaker 7.1p116. Additional details can be found in the 
ReadMeForPatch7.1p116.txt file installed with the update to the FrameMaker 
program directory.

? FrameMaker 7.1p114 mis-scaled WMF graphics when output to print or PDF. 
This issue has been fixed in this patch release. An additional entry 
"WMFPrintOption" has been introduced IN MAKER.INI that provides options 
applicable while printing WMF to printers or PDF (does not affect screen 
display). See the ReadMeForPatch7.1p116.txt file for more information ON 
THE NEW MAKER.INI ENTRY AND AVAILABLE OPTIONS.

? FrameMaker 7.1 crashed when an unsaved FrameMaker file was converted to 
PDF by using the Save As PDF command or printing to the Adobe PDF printer 
with Adobe Acrobat® Distiller® 7.0 installed on Windows®. This issue has 
been fixed in this patch release.

Note: FrameMaker 7.1p116 may have problems if both Acrobat Distiller 6.0 
and Acrobat Distiller 7.0 are installed on the same machine. Adobe does not 
recommend or support having more than one version of Acrobat installed on 
the same machine. It is recommended that users uninstall Acrobat Distiller 
6.0 before installing Acrobat Distiller 7.0.
