Printing issues

[Bob Rasmussen]

Scott sent me (off-list) the PDF as it comes out of Print Wizard. The 
overlay is included as graphics, not text, so fonts in them are not a 
problem. The only font used (File:Properties in Reader will tell you this) 
is Helvetica, which is built in to Adobe Reader. So the PDF is kosher. It 
may be unusual, in this day and age when most PDFs contain embedded fonts.

Scott said he's using a Brother printer. Interestingly, Ken also told me 
that he has had this maloccurrence (wrong fonts, yielding garbage letters) 
with some PDFs (not from Print Wizard) ALSO on a Brother printer.

My story, and I'm sticking to it, is that there is a bug in the Brother 
printer driver. It's also possible that it is related to font 
substitution, and that turning that off would solve the problem.

Finally a note to Scott: updating to current Print Wizard could result in 
smaller PDF files being created.
