I found that setting my printer to Distiller was what solved the "target
drift">>

My default printer is Adobe PDF. (This was Framemaker support's "fix"
for FM crashing when I was doing find/replace operations, and it has
"fixed" the problem. However, that's another issue for another day.)

In spite of that being my default printer, that is not the method I use
to create PDFs b/c it disables the hyperlinks in the PDF file. To create
PDFs, I click on the PDF button in Word. It seems this is the only way I
can create PDFs AND preserve my hyperlinks. Other methods, such as
printing to Adobe PDF or dragging .prn files into Distiller, disable the
hyperlinks.

Am I perhaps overlooking another method of creating PDFs?
