Microsoft Word Print/Save as PDF now “Untitled” instead of DOCX filename

Just recently my copy of Microsoft Word for Mac Version 16.72 (2021) has stopped titling filenames of PDFs when exported from the Print dialog. Steps: Open or create a Word DOCX file. Hit command P , or click File, Print… Click PDF, or click downward arrow, Save as PDF… Expected/previous behavior: File system dialog appears with the prepared PDF filename the same as the DOCX filename. Observed/new behavior: File system dialog appears with the prepared PDF filename “Untitled”. Anyone know why this changed, how I can change it back?
