[R] Problems with trying to print 'refman.pdf'
When I try to print out the refman.pdf file of version 1.3.0 to an HP LaserJet 8000 PS printer, I get the error message "Error occurred while downloading a font. This document might not print correctly". The document does not print correctly. The index page looks fine on the monitor, but appear to print with a "Courier" type font that is squeezed to be proportitional. Has anyone else had this type of problem?

Did you make the file yourself or get it from some distribution? Either the system on which it was made or yours is broken (and you have told us far too little about how you are viewing or converting it to PS for me to guess). Specifically, the file refman.pdf in the Windows 1.3.0 distribution views and prints correctly to our LJ8000 using Acrobat 4.05 and 5.0 under Windows 2000. -- Brian D.
