Missing items in title block on export to PDF

I'm using IV 2014 Pro with Adobe Acrobat XI update 7 today when I'm export IDW to PDF two of the embedded bitmaps are not exported, they were previously without any problems. I've change nothing settings wise in both programs so I'm stumped

 

Print to PDF is working and producing the correct  output but that method is both cumbersome, with having to set paper size etc and take it sweet time. BUT why do in several clicks what you should be able to do in 2 or 3 clicks???

 

 

What I should get

I stopped using Adobe due to all the problems I was having ..and started using CutePDF instead.

I've also posted this to Abode forums and to there Tec Help, no replies yet BUT I expect they blame Autodesk and vise-a-verse hoever at leat Autodesk SEEM to be looking into this, so we MIGHT see wither hotfix or as part of an SP for IV 2014 only time will tell.

 

I'm qurious to know if this is affecting any other versios as well

Can you try using the High Quality output setting in Acrobat. Does the same thing happen when you use the Export to PDF within Inventor as well.

Just insert the picture rather than attaching it as a file

I've had exactly the same issue with Foxit.  I've tried deleting the image out of the title block and reinserting it, but no joy.

It seems like the more I use Inventor 2014 the more issues I am running into; just today I discover the Pipe & Tube work arround and now not even the PDF export feature works. Seriously... not... impressed.

 

But the hotfix seems to solve the problem:
