RE: Unwanted Spaces in PDFs

["Dov Isaacs" <isaacs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Congratulations Mr. Geshel!!!

You have won the DOUBLE-BLUNDER SWEEPSTAKES DU JOUR on the
Framers lists!

(1) Don't use "save as PDF".

(2) Either use the "Acrobat Distiller" printer created by the
Acrobat installer (and I hope you are REALLY using Acrobat 4.05a,
not 4.0) which sends the PostScript directly to the Distiller for
you OR create a printer instance using the Acrobat Distiller PPD
(found in the Distilr\XTRAS directory of Acrobat).
