CC,

You are correct in assuming that it is probably a security issue. You
need to determine which account is trying to write the PDF files and
then check that the account has sufficient permissions on the relevant
folders to complete that task.

One quick way to do this is to use Filemon from Sysinternals. This KB
article explains the process :
