Printing PDFs: Clarification



I think I stated the problem incorrectly the first time,
at any rate, not clearly enough.

I have received several responses telling me
not to select "Skip Blank Pages." But there is no
such option in *Acrobat*. That option is in *FrameMaker*.

The problem occurs when I send PDFs to the Laser Printer.
The blank pages are in the PDF when we look at it on the
screen. They just do not print to the laser printer.

Thanks for any suggestions!

We have a document that is set up as two-sided in FrameMaker. If the
chapter ends
on an odd-numbered page, we set a master page of "none" on the last
(even) page
of the chapter to ensure that it prints entirely blank. This is carried   
    

forward to the PDF
so that if someone prints the doc on a duplex printer, it will always
begin each
chapter on a righ-hand (odd-numbered) page.

The PDF comes out okay, with a viewable blank page, but for some reason,
the printer does not print a blank page... it just skips blank PDF pages.
I can't remember this happening before. Does anyone know what I am doing   
    

wrong?
How can I get it to print those blank pages?

This appears to work okay when we don't "Generate Acrobat Data"
in the FM source file, but not if we do select Generate Acrobat data.
