problem saving in color

First let me confirm that I have no problem saving images as color pdfs, however, when I try to save my reports from QuickBooks they are black and white. If I simply print the report - it's in color but if I save it as a pdf - BANG - instant shift to blk/wht. I have the QB 2011 and Adobe Acobat 9 Pro. Can you PLEASE help me fix this?
 
I have looked at my Preferences - this is what I found for Color Setup:
Settings: Monitor Color
Working Spaces:
RGB: Monitor - sRGB IEC61966-2.1
CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
Grayscal2: Gray Gamma 2.2
 
Distiller: Convert All Colors to sRGB, Document Rendering Intent set to Preserve
Working Spaces:
RGB: Monitor - sRGB IEC61966-2.1
CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 9.0, Windows

Are you printing your QuickBooks file to the Adobe PDF Printer? If so, what is selected under your Adobe PDF Printer properties, under the Adobe PDF Settings tab? Are you using the "Standard" setting from the Default Settings pulldown?

Thanks for the response.

The Adobe PDF Settings are:
Default Settings: Standard
I have check marks in all option boxes (view results, add document info, rely on system fonts, delete log for successful jobs, ask to replace files)
Also on the 'normal' QB print Settings tab, I do have the Print in color (color printers only) checked.

This really makes no sense.

This is happening to me too! The same exact thing. I really wish someone could figure out how to fix this.
